Seems like as normal the Res's get shafted with missing out on an extra day off this week (and probably next)
Union guy said they were meant to be stopping this? I don't know how true...
but the res's all work full-time hours (over there 25/30 hour) and usually have their set route as well! not a huge office either maybe 12 frames total....

This lieu day nonsense is fast becoming a company wide scandal.
You get told you can put in for lieu days on certain months, then when you do you're told you can't apply for them.

"b/h excess" overtime claim in for Friday then and forget the lieu day, you will likely never get it, or get it on a day you don't want.

Yep. My day off this week is Friday. DOM has already asked us what we want; lieu day or pay. I asked about Saturday this week or Tuesday next as lieu day but wasn't able to so took the pay option.

You have the day off that is scheduled for that duty, just bacuse you are an AG matters not. How much notice did you get for a change of day off? Ask for the pay instead.

My DO should be Saturday though. I got told yesterday that my DO would be Friday. I rather pick it up a day in lieu rather than paynumber one wrote:You have the day off that is scheduled for that duty, just bacuse you are an AG matters not.

Is there a difference between Friday being a rest day or an annual leave day?
Are you still entitled to pay or a day lieu in either case?
