I haven't seen any confirmation or otherwise regarding this but have just read it on Faceache with a date of 25th June being, allegedly, given by a member of site staff for implementation.

UP TO DATE INFORMATION ON BOOKINGS


We are normally able to book for next June from today.
However this isn’t possible as the website is moving over to deposits in the next couple of weeks.
So at this time we cannot book anything for next June until the system is live.

If you had a larger monitor screen would that have helped!?

I only asked as it seems the club have had to replace the site monitor screens for the new system as the screen's in use with the present system were to small to show all the required information for the new system 🤔

Maybe replacing the screens was a cheaper option than sending the staff to Specsaver for new specs 😁.

We get eyecare as part of employment dd. Regular hearing tests thrown in toosmile

Just for some correct info. The network is being provided with new monitors to replace the 13+ year old ones. Staff can stipulate what size monitor they require for their site, some have remained the same size believe it or not. Nothing at all to do with the new system when it arriveswink

It's not just 'overthere', Ina, as I used the same section for looking at IoW ferry bookings and I wasn't impressed either.

 

And, JVB, a larger monitor will only show the same page but bigger to make small print easier to read. It won't show more info.

Yes, regarding TW's second paragraph I was just about to post a similar comment. The smaller monitor might have made a cluttered screen hard to read, but it won't show less information.

More monitor space is great for having multiple applications or multiple windows open. Two monitors is ideal; I know some people with three!

Get with it JV. Monitoring staff’s eye health has been with us since the introduction of computers at work places, it’s not just a Club thing.

 We did not have anything when we first had computers

nor  I am sure did the cc  well not at site level

  • it was dependent on the time expected to be using them whether you got eye tests paid by the company

The club are being very generous the display screen screen act applies to frequent users and the buisiness is required to arrange a eye test if asked also to provide special glasses if needed, eye testing has never been offered in any of the businesses I've worked in and I've worked on display monitors since they were first introduced
