Wardens in hiding

I'd always assumed that too - I'm sure I've seen appeals for volunteers in return for a free pitch so it would seem strange if full time wardens were expected to pay.

BTW, I still can find that post attributed to Corners, K. Could you help out? 

One apology a year is enough for anyone, Corners!! 

to clear my good name, taken by K (no apology/retraction yet K I notice) it was Bluemalaga on page 7

Write your comments here.. Relevant part of Corners post copied. .Quote "  site staff are asked to relax the rule "      

Relaxing on-site rules is what this thread is discussing,   I'm sure you will agree.

As i think has been mentioned before ,Wardens best parts of their contacts  with less problems are before the day of opening and just after 1200hrs of the site closing

Write your comments here...No mate, I was referring to the post from Corners about a rule being relaxed - ( see previous page )  I suspect if  head office is telling Wardens to relax one rule that would not be the only one and it gives tremendous credence to those wardens who told yourself what they had been instructed to do by someone from head office.

There is no smoke without fire. !!!!!

Rule 15 is the only rule that can be relaxed  ref arrival/dep times if space permits, is known to staff that i have spoken too

If that 'relaxation' of the rules (when circumstances allow) is documented and part of the rules themselves then that is fine in my opinion. Afterall, we all should have read these when joining the club and in effect have signed up to them. 

I think that if you spoke to the wardens ,you would find that there is a shorted of trained site staff  ,new wardens on their first site sometimes can't  hack it and leave the network  altogether either because they do not get on with other wardens on site
or the general public (us) or more likely that the club has changed their terms of employment i.e. more work or lower travel allowances when travelling from home to site ,also don't forget that they have to provide at their cost site accommodation the club
do not contribute to this  it has to come out of the minimum wage etc

Evening All,

Well, this thread is a bit more entertaining than Saturday night telly so I'll come in. I've quoted the above post because it's pretty much all wrong. Yes we provide our own accomodation but that's it. I don't pay a pitch fee and I'm not on the minimum wage.

Moving on, I'll try and be factual for those that like to pick at words and misquote. It's been mentioned that two wardens in the southwest have spoken about relaxed rules etc and it came direct from the head of sites. I too work in the south west and I'd
like to clarify a few points. We may  have been asked to use our discretion on occasion to allow an arrival before midday if the site is not busy, and of course to allow a departure of up to four pm if also not busy, nothing more, nothing less. No relaxing
of any rules or bye laws that some speculators on here claim.

I'll now sit back and wait for the ianh and kennine show!!

Hey sometimes facts can be a little boring to some on here. How many threads do you see that go on forever that are based on assumption, speculation and rumour?

I'm off duty now so I can be entertained on here with a nice glass of red

So that's two wardens each with differing views on the situation........one who has left the CC and is free to speak their mind and another who is still employed by the CC and.......errrrr.......isn't.

Interesting.

Thanks for that JK! Good to hear a definitive answer! 

I think we can safely put this thread to bed now! 

Don't think that we will hear the last of it, though, unfortunately.

Write your comments here...Correct ---. So can the warden ( only one in the vast ranks of warden staff  so possibly not representative of  the on site staff as a whole) tell us why
so many members feel that the on site rules are not being enforced as they used to be,  prompting this thread and others ????.

I don't actually think it's that many is it, K? Just the usual "on forum moaners"!

Think you're also going to have to give in graciously on this one - go on, do it before Ian!
