In which case, if the current proposal is merely to move existing staff out from behind glass, increase staff visibility and presence on the network, then great. It fairly clearly isn’t about that, though.
Do you actually read the entire post before ranting? I clearly specified that some of those costs won't be immediately saved. The removal of the actual staffed ticket machine is an instant saving though, so not sure why you highlighted that one. The point is that some costs would be saved - and on a national scale, it is significant.The lines I've highlighted are costs that would still exist though. As mentioned many times, the staff will still be employed, rostered and managed. Or are you advocating widespread redundancies?
And again, there are not going to be widespread redundancies - you and others keep peddling these complete non-truths. There are already hundreds of unfilled vacancies in these areas - which simply will not be replaced. A significant number of staff will voluntarily leave/retire - particularly those who have been around for a while and have attractive incentives to do so by virtue of their terms and conditions of employment.
