Dundee West Walkout

Post by deezo »

Dundee West went to the gate at 9.30am today in support of a suspended colleague.
Situation not resolved and at 11.30 everyone sent home.
If management don't back down tomorrow, then a rule 13 will be applied for.

Think we will see more of these walkouts as we are getting more heavy handed management and people have had enough.
