Yes it is. Its infrastructure and trains capable of being operated by one person.
You do know the gaurds are a hang over from when trains ran on coal. Technology now means they run on pixie magic thru the rail lines and cables and not needing someone else to basically shovel shit.
Because of the silly rule. Do keep up its beem mentioned numerous times. "Southern" want to run without a guard in exeptional circumstances. Your brothers are having none of it.
Full time but an understanding employer for 2016 not 1975
As the bigman says work from home, flexible hrs.
The idiot guards should try it. They might like it x
Ita ok mate. We are indiana jones old chap in fact every time i board the 6.57 DOO to Blackfriars I have the theme tune in my head.
We modern day red adairs putting life and limb on the line fighting the oil rig fire.
DOO fella. I agree that money should be spent across the whoile network. Therefore the guards can**** off and you lot can drive the trains.
Everyone happy. Apart from a few people remaining in the 70s with British Leyland etc.
Precisely.
I got the 10.05 to LB today. Lovely and ON TIME.
I will get the 16.42 home.
Guess what LOVELY DOO. No guards to **** us about. These trains can leave the station NO PROBLEM.
Well done. FAct remains hundreds of DOO run Btn to London every day. And all round the country. Fine be a luddite. But you know what work in the private sector. You would shit your ****ing pants and so would your "brothers", get in the real world.
Bollox DOO runs all day up and doen the line Thameslink, Southern, Gatwick Express. Sop why couldnt the DOO capaable 5.57 not run. Why does the 7.32 not run. BECAUSE THERE IS NO GUARD. It doesnt really need one lets be honest.
Today I got the 10.05 to LB clearly a DOO and got in on time.
I...
In case you hadn't noticed its been like that in the private sector for over a hundred years.
I would much rather the unions admit they are striking to save jobs instead of the suprious "passenger safety" as guess what OTHER trains are running without you.
Well if thats the creme de la creme of the top flight give me the glorious unpredictability of the championship.
The bit that really made me laugh was when in about the 75th min Tyler said "Man Utd havent even had a corner yet, they need to show some ambition"
This is a Mourinho side.
Away...
Thats the thing. These are the emergency or special circumstances that "southern" are talking about in running a train without a guard.
They are having none of it. They know eventually the job will be phased out. Guess what guys its called TECHNOLOGY.
Now I ****ing hate southern but I also...
Gus Poyets biggest mistake not giving him what he wanted leaving him free to sign for that lot up the road.
Could Murray be the first legend for Brighton AND Palace. Its getting that way.
I have been on plenty of DOO and I survived. Im quite happy to take my chances. Im sure millions of others are as well.
What difference would a guard on a DOO train on a DOO route have made today for example? But it couldnt leave because of their ****ing stupid "no way can a train leave in...
So here we are the 5.57 to Brighton cant leave London Bridge because there is no guard. Now this is a DOO route AND a DOO train but due to the luddites not agreeing we are now ****ing stuck because the guard isnt here.
Yes I get he may be delayed but even so. It could ****ing go but no. Thanks...
