Workers' Liberty

If you have travelled through Kings Cross of late, you will have noticed that staff are wearing orange HiVis all day (and if you work there, you will obviously know this!).

We know it's London Fashion Week soon, but this is going a bit far ...

In Heathrow management's latest wheeze, they want staff to wear a sash emblazoned 'Oyster Help' on the gateline!

Saturday morning, and a 'customer' decides to deposit a poo on the stairs at Temple station.

Apparently, some trains are missing cab coat hooks, and they are not being replaced because depot stores can't afford to buy any.

Metronet workers are missing their overalls. Apparently, Metronet owes the laundry company a shedload of money, so the laundry company won't return the overalls once cleaned!

A contractor supplying protection services to Metronet provides its workforce with bog standard safety boots, despite Metronet having better boots as standard.

Is anyone out there still wearing a tie during the hot weather?! Take it off!

A fair few staff have found that dry cleaners are refusing LUL cleaning tokens. Something about how LUL doesn't pay enough and takes ages to cough up. If this happens to you, keep your receipts, and demand your local management pay up!

We will have to bring this to the attention of our union officials - they might not be aware of the problem, especially if they have not put on a uniform for years ...
