I have done 20 years and guys who have done 3 years are still on 11-1900

I was told i have to move because there is no work for me at 11am but my collection has been given to another driver :shock:

I have two kids who i will never see as they will be in bed when i come home, and my wife also works at wolves and is on earlies so she will be on her way home when i'm on the way to work.

Basically i will see kids 30 mins in morning tops and won't see wife monday to friday.

my manager said it will make my week ends better, i nearly punched him there and then the tosser.

im not the only one at wolves in this situation but to be honest our cwu reps are useless there :(
Kin ell,what a pile of s**t,you need to get onto your area rep asap.

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.

The part of the contract that gives RM the right to change our hours, it could be argued to be null and void. Since your start time has been the same start time for how many years!!! Therefore the implied start time.

And after all that time, they chose this time to use that clause. Think it could be argued to be an unfair clause/contract.

CWU Legal please check this up.
