I work just outside London, however my train journey is such that I have to travel via London Bridge. I am the only person in my office who does this particular journey, all others who come in travel from West London via Victoria. Clapham Junction etc.
I have previously asked re working from home last yr when we last had snow - response was that I couldnt have a networked laptop for security reasons plus I wouldn't be able to supervise my team. Our firm has other offices, but the only other one closer to me is at London Bridge and all staff there are working remotely during the Olympics or at other offices. And even if I could work there (unlikely) there would still be the supervision issue.
I've now been asked about 4 times re my Olympic travel arrangements, whether there is an alternative route (there isnt as I dont drive), etc but no-ones actually come back to me. I'm conscious its less than 2 months off now, and not quite sure what's going to happen...does anyone else have any experience of this? what approach are other employers taking?
What worries me is if they either force me to take the whole period as annual leave, or if as predicted my journey time to/from work work doubles, they expect me to somehow make up the time.
