It is now obvious, that Royal Mail want this strike to go ahead on Friday. ( It is alleged Mr Leighton is in Canada at the moment, is this true? Would explain why the failed FA man was at today`s meeting and not the main Twerp, ( he probably, is trying to get another Part time job?)
I would like to CONGRATULATE (nearly) everyone on this Forum, for their words of encouragement and support to each and everyone of US, I`m sure on many occasions we have cheered each other up?
HAVE A GOOD DAY FRIDAY, and lets hope we get `them`back to the `table`.
ANNOUNCEMENT : ALL OF ROYAL MAIL'S EMPLOYMENT POLICIES (AGREEMENTS) AT A GLANCE (Updated 2021)... HERE
ANNOUNCEMENT : PLEASE BE AWARE WE ARE NOT ON FACEBOOK AT ALL!

If Leighton is in Canada at this time it would be a useful sound bite to throw into a TV interview.
Shows that the *%$*"$$ is not interested in RM, just the huge rake offs that he has help himself to. If the top man is not around at this time Gordon Brown should drag Leightons ass back to sort it out.
The fact the t**ss*r won't talk at ACAS meeting tells me he is happy to see RM disappear. Leaving the field clear for he and his cronies to clear up and make a mint.
Without any end of year figures published yet it has to be assumed that a profit was made last year, because if RM operated at a loss last year he would certainly be using the figures to strengthen his argument. If we make millions of pounds profit whilst operating ineffectivley as he states, how much more is to be made after investment in machinery and more importantly THE WORKERS.[/b]

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.

Not much room at our office to stage a picket without blocking the footpath but we'll see what we can do.
Most of us are getting there early just so we can see who's going in - we know of a couple
Good luck to everyone, and it's nice to know we're not alone

I believe everything my manager tells me. I also believe in fairies, that pigs have wings and that there is a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

Hi All
can someone explain to me what the whistles are for?? i won't be going in tomorrow but we have quite a few in our office who talk the talk, but will not walk the walk and will be crossing the picket lines! it outrages me that they will take whatever good we might gain from this while still getting paid their wages. None of us can afford a days loss in wages, but I feel we MUST support our union, no matter what!

Re: Whistles
The nerve of these bloody people! Our DUM was walking around singing "Just Say No" for weeks before the result was announced, (the friggin' big kid!) but asked me to stop as soon as I sang "Vote Yes, if you're not a scab!" to the tune of Go West.underpaid wrote:my rep came up to me today said the screws had had a word with him to tell me to stop inciting people by shouting and all that wait til i get the air horn out

that everyone is in the same boat.
