We heard on picket line today that the strike breakers were preparing walks in order to ease the burden for wednesday... Looks like we will be walking up the same drives more than once!!

I wouldn't have thought the backlog would have been so bad on Wednesday because everyone is out and so there would be very little movement - still we'll soon know. I wondered if we would be kept back to prep deliveries for casuals to take out - that would be fun! :shock:

3am Wednesday the strike officially stops. I'm thinking nothing much will move before go in (on our f***ing later start times), so whatever the strike breakers have boxed in, we take out. Thursday will be a bummer of a day - remember folks, work to your time, don't move an inch for these w*****s.

I don't know if it's common practice everywhere else but I'd always write 'MP' on an envelope, short for Miss-prepped if it had been missorted.; just to cover yourself if the managers happen to stumble across it and ask questions.

Expected backlog 100m letters actual backlog 80m letters not as bad as expected but still a huge problem.
of course theres a huge backlog, RM dont want to come out and say this publicly tho.

- Postmen get £440/ week average wages = LIE
- 33% of staff worked during the strike = LIE
- theres not a huge backlog = LIE

why arent the CWU getting any people on the news and giving our side, all youre seeing at the moment is RM doing a damage limitation operation and its working because theres a lack of counter argument.
Yes I quite agree the CWU should be giving news interviews giving our side of things but please no more pathetic interviews like Billy Hayes and his Northern Rock one.
