I have to dissagree with your statement.It could not be further from the truth for a number of firms who only are bothered about you being back at work,and not your wellbeing after an incident.

Silly Wotsit Trains

Speed cameras on the Platform at Chertsey

Windsor and Eton Central

Thats for when we forget to stop !

The station in question was around a mile and a half away when you turned the bend.They would start flashing the torch when they saw you come along,and I usually used to respond with a toot on the horn,to acknowledge them once I had seen them.They would then turn the torch off and wait.

Ok,so I am already on 12 hours worked,having agreed to help out earlier,and my last working has no relief through no fault of my own when I get to my home depot.What you are saying is that I should ignore all laid down rules and take that train on to its destination,taking me maybe up to 15...

Spot on,but try explaining that time and again to Mr Commuter,or Mr Spotter who both think we are bone lazy idle layabouts,who will do anything to stop the job or delay them.

You orginal posting was that of a grass up post,simple as that.Dont try and squirm your way out of it.
