What would it be?? and Who are these people in the know the ones on full time duty release??The truth! wrote:It just explains why most of the in the know posters avoid this sight like the plague.
I belive you...but decamating our T & C hasn't exactly help has it.I did say it does not concern me whether you believe me or not , but the facts are clear and Royal Mail for the first time ever have opened their books to the union.
You give a pretty good acount of the problem below.
What does it mean well as far as the union is concerned it means that the Government dids to take on the pension defecit , allow for Royal Mail to borrow money but its does not need to be privatised and then allow share holders to run down the company ever further and faster then this current bunch of industrial terrorists. In addtion there must be concessions made by post comm especially in the way of the head room access price. No company can be in a good postion if two thirds of its profitable mail has now via DSA missed the network and outward processing operations and then Royal Mail has to perfrom the most costly part of the work the USO which means that the cherry pickers TNT etc make a profit and Royal Mail depending on where the work is targeted struggle. So whilst a lot on here in deliveries state they are not losing work the reality is that the revenue Royal Mail now get for the work you are delivering is far less than previously meaning the delivery operation is more costly. No one is to blame apart from Post Comm and the previous Government in addtion the Governmment must not stop the post office subsidy otherwise there will be the biggest closures programme every for post office counters as they will not be included in the sell off.
Well why the f**k are things like bsi not included in ther agreement and NO we are not better off because YOU and the others in 'the know' decided to give away our T & C.Equally Royal Mail must honour the full terms of the national agreement. The delays in the programme are in the main Royal Mail`s fault as they wanted the upper decile linked to world class mails being the criteria for productivity and now have shared with the union at national level where they think offices are its based on density of houses/addresss for towns , cities and rurals.
Of course there are on going problems with regards to the IWT , the default postion of 100 bsi on iwt , delivery office closures and mail centre closures. But does anyone believe whether we had an agreement or not that we would not be dealing with all the above a lot weaker in the absecne of any protection.
No some of you point out that no government would allow the post office go to the wall , but do you really think that this government would not miss the opportunity to change dramatically how the industry is run and owned if it has to bail out the industry ? Do you really think that would be a good move for the workforce.
Equally the bravdo of those who say it does not concern them if Royal Mail runs out of money for even vrs or wages etc. I suggust you speak to someone who used to work for the Sun as warping how it feels .
Whats the matter worried they may take your duty release off you after all!
woooooooooorkkkkkkk
now there's a novel thought, I may print that off and show it to mein DOM when I take the exalted one his milky coffee and chocolate hob nobs tomorrow - I bet we'll laugh and laugh, before he gives me a lift home 
If only I was a member of the CWU, perhaps I could swap allegiance and give Billy and Dave what they deserve 
Still they probably have the cleanest arses in christendom as it is.
