Watt No Heater?!

Posted in Tubeworker's blog on ,

Replacing the old-style GLAPs (Gate Line Assistance Posts) seems to have provided management with an opportunity to take the heat out of the situation - literally.

You'd think that a new-design GLAP should have at least as good facilities (we use the term very broadly) as the old-style ones. But instead of a heater, we now have just a 60-watt bulb! Tubeworker wonders whether the purpose of this is to save a little money on energy bills, or to deter station staff from taking shelter from the cold and thus be more 'visible' to those mystery shoppers. Either way, it's mean and unacceptable.

It's not like we were expecting the new GLAPs to have sofas or games consoles, but we think we're entitled not to freeze our bits off. We may just have to take shelter somewhere warmer - like a managers' office, as we expect that they still have proper heaters.
