Would anyone expect to pay...

... 50p to YO for use of electricity when the EDT comes?

I was a bit surprised to be asked but perhaps it is usual?

Any thoughts?

I think I'd be a bit surprised! Do you pay for the power when you clip? Or have the lights on?

Er, no. Or if I did, I'd expect it to be an amount worth bothering over, like a couple of quid!

No, not unless it was in livery contract or I normally was charged for electric! And even then only for regular things like lights in school at night.

Very odd approach.....

I've not been at the yard long (although this is the 2nd dentist visit as her teeth were bad) so I just wasn't aware. I haven't clipped her so I don't know about that.

The switch for the indoor arena lights is inaccessible but there are times when arena is not in use lights are left on for liveries. Otherwise there are tokens. Outdoor arena lightswitch is accessible so obviously don't pay for that.

As I say, I just didn't expect it!

No.

Paid for arena lights and solarium etc, not necessary and very costly to run.

But really don't expect it for things like vet/dentist/basic lighting, things that are necessary.

where i used to work the yard manager decieded to come up with the idea of if you want to use the poorly managed school they would have to put money into a meter... it was all a bit of joke to be honest tho..

i dont think many people remain there...
