Some will be delivering for the £20 supplement and others won't, some will be delivering the same amount of work but only receive part payment.

So one thing is for sure, there is definitely a winners and losers element which considering everyone pays the same subs..............................................
Now that would'nt be a certain 'antiques dealer' would it DV?
Actually vigilante, that took me a while to work out - the matron will have to increase the medication again. Well he may have subscribed to it but it was another well known poster who thought, at the time, it was the deal of the century - strange thing was nobody seemed to take umbrage at the time and yet what a peculiar state of affairs for a union to openly admit that some members would actually lose out.

This leads to massive abuse of all agreements that has blighted us for years. I do blame the CWU HQ for not standing their ground and supporting the workforce at all levels.

Until we get CLEAR, BLACK AND WHITE agreements we will continue to be a shambles and so at the moment its every man for himself.

Run, rabbit run. Dig that hole, forget the sun.
And when at last the work is done. Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one
