Who will be covering when people are off sick or on annual leave?

i always remember my 1st ever "own" duty, think i got on it aug/sept ish and in quite a nice area, the lad who gave it up said he used to get a fair bit too,
i only got 1 tip of a fiver the 1st year and that was from someone who'd asked me to pass on a tenner to the last guy and didn't know he'd switched rounds until i told them

this year we haven't had any cover duty holders so will share cash & keep any refreshments to ourselves if given

No ones carrying cash anymore, it’s all contactless, just ask the street beggars.

I would be reluctant to give him anything especially if he’s been harassing you and carving up the duty then f**k him.

I always got a share from 4 of my 5 duty holders. Without asking either. To be honest though I worked as a team player, doing many things that made our lives just that little bit easier.

Yes I think you are right and I couldn’t believe he actually asked me to give him around £40! He said he always gets it from the previous duty holder LOL but apparently on all the other rounds he covers I found out that only one person gives them any tips around £20 the other guys give him nothing, I’m kind of annoyed with him constantly going on about how quick he can get round my round so yes I think you’re probably right I won’t give him any tips unless someone specifically says give some tips to the other guy. In fact if he came in on his time took his brakes and did the job like I do without charging around or probably would give him some tips but the fact he keeps cutting it up and going on about it is enough for me to think I won’t give him nothing! It serves him alright for coming early and being such a a hole!

Lapsing.

I wouldn't give the reserve anything.
