Last I heard on Delivery was:

If you're not fit for the job, then you're not fit to work at RM. :no no

got to laugh when "the disabled" get cushy single duties ring-fenced but then miraculously can work days off on other duties and also work their holidays :left:
seen many times over the years, even those whose condition doesn't necessarily take away their driving licenses but would make perfect sense to pair them up as the non driver just in case they have a turn, but rm agree with them that they are better off out alone in the sticks behind the wheel if they were to have a turn!
the system is open to abuse

You seem to hear so much as an ex-employee why do you even care.

I know someone who gave a story and dropped their hours from FT to 16hrs PT
but then works 3 days OT
Done it so can get a few £k on the holiday pay reimbursement.

Never been picked on it.

Why do you always seem so defensive Aiden01?
