Miserable tube drivers for Olympics
Discussion
Just sat down in front of the news to hear that the tube drivers have the potential to get up to £850 bonus for working the Olympic period. What bloody drug are these fking lazy cocksockets taking to think that they can demand these bonuses for working for the few weeks they would be working anyway?
What a clusterfk! (love that word)

Yet bankers seem to be worthy of receiving for just doing there job?
A) my understanding is that it usually it forms part of their contract - I imagine Olympic bonuses don't feature in tube drivers contractsB) they are private organisations as opposed to public services (I'm aware that some are part owned by the state, but this is irrelevant as they still operate as a private organisation)

If they have a contract but transport for london want them to be flexible and work more hours/weekends over the olympics, then surely it's up to them if they want to pay there drivers a bonus?B) they are private organisations as opposed to public services (I'm aware that some are part owned by the state, but this is irrelevant as they still operate as a private organisation)

My understanding is that this is over and above the overtime they receive anyway...
Of course it is , say my drivers each worked every 3rd weekend on overtime, with something as big as the olympics i'd want them every available for work every other weekend if not every weekend for the duration of the games, now obviously there going to need paying for being that flexible. egor110 said:
