Network i assume as in Logistics ?? I still dont think its right ?? If anyone with anysense had half a brainshell they would go for this -

Deliveries - Out First

Maximum Impact

No OUTPUT.

Its not like you can take the mail to another delivery office to be delivered is it ??

Lets get some brain into this before its too late & we are costing ourselves more & more money to win this, they just move the mail to scab centres when the mail centres are out, so get deliveries out first & create a mass backlog ?? Its the only way.

We need to form a 'Strike Commitee'.

I don't think deliveries 1st would make any difference, if MCs were out the day after then the day after that DOs would get nothing through from MCs and so they would clear any backlog.

By network it probably means RDCs and network drivers (I think that only covers artic drivers)

It would as some posties would have lost 2 days pay and others none. It would have a bad effect on moral.

if deliveries out friday this week and saturday next week then not fair because that means the same people will not lose a days pay for 2 weeks (which includes me), because of rotation, not better to make thursday for deliveries so it means some others will get paid :hmmmm
