My opinion is that after the last payrise, someone down in Exeter made a conscious decision that... "Now they've got their payrise, let's work those b@$*@*ds hard." Surely it's no coincidence that the move to a 6 on 2 off pattern occurred just after the rise, is it?
I would like to think that they can't work us any harder, but when the recent resignations start to kick in at the end of March, I think we're in for a nightmare Summer.
