AFAIK No - technically he may be considered as on official strike but that may be a long shot. It'll probably go down as unauthorised absence.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

However in view of the late conclusion of the resolution and the fact that some members have previously been advised that they are due to take Industrial Action today from 7pm a number may not be made aware in time for them to attend their duties/overtime etc, the withdrawal will be on the following basis. That any individual who fails to attend for their shift etc would still be considered to be taking Official Industrial Action until such time as they return to work.

Bloody unlucky not reading this before! We could all have had a week off without pay!
