Come On Falk wake up,,

Guinness Man - Mon Aug 27, 2012 7:06 pm

Trust me I tow enough "vehicles" guess I have a very light touch and the majority of people I work with are very good have had the odd strap caught under a wheel

Guinness Man - Mon Aug 27, 2012 7:06 pm

hope he is making tea

Asap - Mon Aug 27, 2012 7:08 pm

& biscuits

Guinness Man - Mon Aug 27, 2012 7:09 pm

Earth calling

Guinness Man - Mon Aug 27, 2012 7:10 pm

We are down on numbers at our place with people that have left but no sign of recruiting it's a crafty way to make savings

Guinness Man - Mon Aug 27, 2012 7:11 pm

and I suspect to fasciltate single crewing

Guinness Man - Mon Aug 27, 2012 7:11 pm

there's that sceptic again

Asap - Mon Aug 27, 2012 7:12 pm

Can't see any on rd recruiting only control rooms, a way to keep numbers down before single crewingtakes up the slack ?

Asap - Mon Aug 27, 2012 7:13 pm

I'm surprised they are recruiting control room and not keeping the option of moving on roaders over after training/dual training

Guinness Man - Mon Aug 27, 2012 7:15 pm

agreed I wish there was a bit more honesty an openess instead of all this secret squirrel lark but then knowledge is some peoples power. I dont know what retention of staff is like in your neck of the woods but our 's has quite a turn over so that should not be a problem for those that cab afford to travel there

Guinness Man - Mon Aug 27, 2012 7:16 pm

you got your tea yet?

Asap - Mon Aug 27, 2012 7:17 pm

I don't think the people doing the planning know what they want or are looking for, i know a couple of people transferred in from other area's, but a couple of outstations are/have always been overstaffed.

Asap - Mon Aug 27, 2012 7:18 pm

Anyway even running 6 or 7 down , my outstation are hitting KPI's so you could ask why they will be replaced or were they overstaffed ?, Not that it's easy bto get leav

Asap - Mon Aug 27, 2012 7:19 pm

I'm going to slide off Gm catch up again :slgo:

Guinness Man - Mon Aug 27, 2012 7:20 pm
