The cushy rounds the oldtimers pick aren't so cushy anymore so they are given a choice of pick the perceived easiest duty which aren't cushy anymore...its a shame because I thought it was a good system but as we know the profit machine is in full swing let's hope ofcom or the new CEO can have some common sense on the duty sizes.

Same, here and close by offices
It's bullying and harassment to get rid of them really. Not even thinly veiled.

Never mind, we still have the union in the workplace.

Wrong! Oldtimers that started out as reserves and whom had already taken their turn at not having a regular round are now being forced to go back to being reserves! Allowing the noobies fresh in from the world the chance to go straight on to walks without having to do the s**t work that every body else had to do when they started!

Really? From what I read you are saying the oldtimers can still pick the best rounds but the best rounds are now crap? I'm talking about not being able to pick rounds at all now? As they have to become reserves as the part timers get to choose before them because management want some part timers to sign for walks even though a lot of them have less seniority?

" I'm talking about not being able to pick rounds at all now? " bit of an exaggeration me thinks.

It’s a tactic to get guys with more seniority to leave the company without VR so they can save money and get a gig economy employee in.

It’s absolutely disgusting and continued attacks on our workforce.

This has happened at our DO for a while now, management said paired duties had to be one full time and one part time so effectively some people lost their seniority ,dosnt make any sense

Yeah we've known for a while now its a race to the bottom its legalized theft the rich really do get richer.

No it's not an exaggeration. When there are only a certain amount of rounds left on each section only a part timer can sign for them. For example on one section in this current resign there were 3 rounds left. Someone with over 20 years was not allowed to sign for any of them as they then were deemed part timer only! So basically a part timer with 3 years seniority can now choose one of them but the guy with 20 years seniority could not!

So I guess if that's not how it's done in your office you are one of the lucky ones!
