Possible Olympic Problems

["Tezza" <tezza2000@dingoblue.net.au>]

CityDerail now have only 6 days left to get the Olympic rosters and diagrams
out to Drivers if they want the timetable to start on the 13th. From what
the roster clerks say, it doesn't look promising.

There's talk that CityDerail are delaying signing the Driver's Functional
Agreement. If it's not ratified by the court before the Olympics start many
Drivers will refuse to abide by it's conditions.

Many Drivers are already saying if they aren't paid the new rate by the time
the Olympics start (and it's doubtful even if the agreement is ratified)
they will only work to current conditions.

Apparently CityDerail also only want to pay the Drivers back pay on the flat
76 hour fortnight (which would explain delaying the commencment) and not on
actual time worked. This will cause many more problems.
