    Refusing to work notice

    It's not the same thing, but it reminds me somewhat of the restrictive covenants you sometimes find in contracts especially for professional grades - whilst if written properly they can be enforced, they are often unenforceable and again, often more hassle than it's worth in a lot of real world...

    What expecations of privacy should apply to persons working in a public-facing role?

    I disagree, and the responses from multiple people, some to this thread, some to me more personally gives me the impression that there's a consensus that that is a reasonable interpretation of what you said. I've already given reasons for not wanting to interact with yourself on this matter...

    Refusing to work notice

    I suppose whilst legally contract law applies to them, from a pure effect point of view it likely doesn't because it's so not worth chasing, I'd expect you have to be a big player to be worth what it would cost to persue.

    What expecations of privacy should apply to persons working in a public-facing role?

    It's none of your business and your opinion, though you have a right to it - is t me neither wanted or valued. I said what I said, because it had merit. The reason for this, and I'll give you one as it's only fair - is because not unlike your friend Yorkie, you have proven previously to being...

    Refusing to work notice

    This happens quite often, and yes it can be a breach of contract and as i understand it it is possible for a company to take legal action to recover losses due to this. However the reality is it is rarely worth it. Places i used to work, warehouses etc often had people just stop showing and...

    What expecations of privacy should apply to persons working in a public-facing role?

    and that^, in fact it even follows with '....I'm of the opinion' Pathetic.

    What expecations of privacy should apply to persons working in a public-facing role?

    Why do I have to evidence an opinion? A few days ago, on the general chat area - israel thread - you were asked - a number of times - to answer a series of points. People kept coming back to it, ultimately your response was, not word perfect, that you would in your own time but not at that...

    What expecations of privacy should apply to persons working in a public-facing role?

    You're right of course, but it's so easily stepped around it's not a biggie. Personally I'm of the opinion that if you're actively filming someone at work and making them the subject of it, especially in a context in which you want to publish their actions with a view for obtaining public...

    Discussion on Subject Access Requests in Ticketing Disputes

    Agree. The terminology is a bit awry in my opinion but ultimately they do have the right to request and access this data, bad phrasing won't negate that. To me the letter appears a bit of a shot across the bows, it's designed to get your attention as the matter could escalate - they're openly...

    Consequences of what can happen if you do not engage in process

    There's two ways to read this, minor fare becomes a big issue because 'we couldnt pay at the window' or, man creates his own hell through own arrogance Reading through it I'm going with the latter, even if he had a point there's a lot he could've done to make an a bad outcome better.

    Annoying television adverts...

    I can also post on a thread called 'Annoying television adverts...' that I find it annoying :)

    Annoying television adverts...

    I don't like it because it effectively sets your worth (not financial) based on what you spend - IMO I never really used to pay much attention to the commercialisation of Christmas but it's getting a bit sickly

    Annoying television adverts...

    I've seen a lot of adverts lately along the lines of 'gift extra', I try to switch off to it but i think the gist was I should shop with them in order to be a better gifter. I love christmas period but this has tipped me into the winter in a bit of a mood - why would i want to be a better...

    What expecations of privacy should apply to persons working in a public-facing role?

    Would they not just claim legitimate interest for highlighting discrimination? (not saying that took place but could be the argument) That's how I feel about it, whilst there is (rightfully IMO) a lot of allowance for filming in public, and NR themselves have a document outlining the...

    What expecations of privacy should apply to persons working in a public-facing role?

    It's one of those situations in life where it needs a human element Of course, in public there can be no guarentee or absolute right to privacy - in a public facing role you can find yourself on camera and you'll almost always be on CCTV in some manner But, no matter how well you try to do...

    TFL single justice procedure notice

    More importantly, why not find out rather than assume? I appreciate might be a little off topic, but if some remember what I said a few weeks ago with regards to the common reference to anxiety when caught, my natural thought would be people would be more cautious and more risk averse where...

    Thameslink driver refuses to move train 16/11

    Not a railway worker but if the driver doesn't feel he can drive safely then that's going to be that. As already stated I'd laugh at the thought of any comeback on a driver acting in the name of safety. Crap happens, at least someone responded with their head. Roll the die the other way and...

    Pacers running on preserved railways - your thoughts?

    That little AI story actually sums up the pacers reputation rather well - steam breaks down, rain falls down, bad customer service, damn those pesky pacers :D

    Retrospective prosecution for fare evasion - has it been successful in court yet?

    The anxiety argument always interested me, I suffer anxiety and it means I avoid certain social situations, get stressed when things go wrong (as such I try and actively avoid and pre-plan to avoid things going wrong to the nth degree) and so forth, it makes you worry about eventualities that...

    Retrospective prosecution for fare evasion - has it been successful in court yet?

    In the case of an employee all you'd need is a reasonable suspicion anyway
