I accept it may not be genuine, but it did contain a lot of information that rang true; and the convoluted way the calculations of both bonuses were outlined could help to explain why there were so many different interpretations of how the auto tip money was paid to staff given out by P&O.daib GC wrote: ↑29 Apr 2018, 23:05I am still interested how you still beleave that the post from CC was in anyway genuine as it came along at a very appropriate time and from a first time poster. Glad to say that where it has been posted elsewhere it has been greeted with a large degree of scepticism. And I had not even posted anything.towny44 wrote: ↑29 Apr 2018, 22:40Do be careful how deep you dig in that hole Dai, we would not want the sides falling in on you!
But whether it is true or not I have run my calculations through the computer several times and still find that if everyone paid the full auto tip the revenue to P&O far outweighs the likely bonuses that would be earned by all the staff concerned. So either P&O are having to set the level of the tip high enough to cover the ones who opt out, or they are pocketing quite a tidy sum for their profits. Either way those that pay are being disadvantaged compared to those that opt out.
