1 in 4 Saturdays question

Post by trouble »

We have been told by the cwu area rep that unless our office takes 1 of the options (9 day fortnight,4 day week,etc) then under no circumstances are we going to get the 1 in 4 Saturdays off --- these Saturdays are tied into accepting 1 of the options.
Have any other offices heard this?
I dont remember seeing that part in the agreement so are the cwu yet again bowing down to RM.
Also most if not all of N.Ireland will start later than 7am
we must be the minority

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.
