Monday off ?

Post by hubbahubba »

If the strike is on a Monday then what about people who work an early turn in MC's,(Tues-Sat attendance)?

Hardly fair on everyone else who loses a days pay,or is this a rolling strike day as we had last time?
same as it ever was...

Some people don't work Mondays.
Some people will be on annual leave.
Some people will be off sick.
Some people will be on their rest day.

It isn't fair but so what?
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Its always pot luck when it comes to single strike days. I lost pay last time but some in my office did 12 hour shifts and lost a lot more than I did. Credit to them they went out with the rest of us.

You win some you lose some - I lost out big time in 2007 but hey ho, some people didn't. Luck of the draw and all that. I'm off 04.11.2013.

Next time, it might fall on your day off/AL or whatever.

It's pot luck.
