Life in the slow lane + digital exclusion on the rails: Old Geezers Diary, 21 Jan 2023
WATCH: In a Dutch supermarket chain, there's now a slow lane for people who want a chat . . . and if you use rail services, prepare to say good bye to helpful station ticket office staff! More problems for the 3 million non-internet pensioners!

The latest on the US rail strikes that Biden shut down in December inthesetimes.com/article/rail- (nothing much happening now, but conditions still suck and workers are still pissed. They're prepping for the fight to restart when contracts come back up for renegotiation in "less than 2 years")

It would have been cheaper to settle the pay dispute !
You really cannot make this up.
The Tory government is intent on confrontation. Shameful.

It is clear that the government priority is shareholder returns and not workers’ standards of living.

My lift to Nottingham for Weds - Fri has fallen through, due to various respiratory viruses taking out the driver. So, deciding whether to risk the train instead.
Looks like I would have to miss the last session owing to the and still a bit of a concern about others passing on unwanted Christmas 'gifts' even with the low in-person attendance this year.

No thank you South Western Railway, I do not want to be a scab for your overpaid executives to wage a public relations war against your workforce simply because they won't roll over and accept a real-terms paycut.

“Delays and cancellations linked to 20 years of privatisation, rising costs and labour shortages worsened by pandemic, say experts”

And some, have confirmed, that when it rains, wetness is to be expected, to the astonishment of the researchers.
