Victoria VICTORIA LINE: Minor delays are occurring due to earlier faulty communications equipment  I´ve seen this quite a few times on tfl. Is this necessarily Train radio ?  |

Well it was train radio today. TfL unusually posted the following news item:
"Your Victoria line service today
London Underground (LU) apologises for the disruption to Victoria line services today.
This was caused by a train radio fault between Euston and Stockwell.
The fault was repaired by LU at the earliest opportunity and the cause is being investigated.
LU apologies if this led to delayed journeys."
Must've been a mega screw-up for them to actually go that far!

This kind of ties in with another question you recently asked: districtdave.proboards39.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=1143556293As I said in that thread, LUL only uses a few different terms when announcing a reason for a delay. I really do think that there are occasions when they can offer a better explanation and the public could be better informed. It would then eliminate the impression that it's always the problems that keep occuring. |

All I meant was that he's very good at remembering them I know, only Yesterday I had early shift and my boss was coming in every two minutes and shouting "WHERE IS THAT DOSSIER" And I felt like "SHUT UP YOU LITTLE B****R (not you alexh, my boss! ) and I was overreacting a little in that post (I mean it didn´t really need a reply) Cheers Marty |

Don't worry Marty I know what it's like to work with annoying managers, the ones in the distribution centre I work (I'll post the name of it when I leave on the 20th May  ) are totally useless and a disgrace to the shift they're supposed to be running. I find them infuriating and know exactly what you mean on that one |

I find them infuriating and know exactly what you mean on that one Sounds like my boss - only mine is worse - He has given my early shifts all last week (Wake up at 3 am) AND I have Sunday Duty tomorrow (I expect next week I´ll have late shifts )! (What´s the point of having a manager that shouts at the shift manager, who then shouts at someone like me because he has to change my Hours Check-up and the shiftboard) |
