Exactly. They messed up pretty badly in '07. But they seem to have learned from their mistakes. I just hope it works!

Re: WHICH UNITS OR AREAS ARE HAVING BALLOTS OR IA
Apparently our ballot papers are due Friday, only one office out of the whole area has'nt asked for a ballot yet(not including SPDO's obviously). Not sure how the vote in my office will go as no one seems to know why we are going on strike as all the changes have already been bought in. Has anyone got anything I can print out?
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet

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.

No they are not in our area, I thought they would be in the same CWU region as you. I don't think its hunky dory anywhere, our DOM has gone over to another office for a while, the changes have'nt been bought in there yetPOSTMAN wrote:Is erith/bexleyheath in your sort of area,as the DSM thinks everything is hunky dory over there.k66yla wrote:Apparently our ballot papers are due Friday, only one office out of the whole area has'nt asked for a ballot yet(not including SPDO's obviously).

So it maybe delayed a little with our strikes tomorrow so two weeks should be enough if you fill it in the day you get it.k66yla wrote:Just received a letter off my local branch, saying I should be receiving my ballot paper soon, ballot open 24/07/09 closes 03/08/09

Most of the PE area being balloted at the moment it seems. Our own office is due papers soon, in relation to rounds being absorbed in our office. i.e. being split up into parts and we have to deliver extra on top of our own deliveries. Being threatened with our wages being stopped if we refuse to deliver the extra.

Re: WHICH UNITS OR AREAS ARE HAVING BALLOTS OR IA
Well the ballot papers are in, sent mine off today. Got a feeling that the majority in my office is going to vote NO
Some that I've spoke to have said 'whats the point, its a bit late for us now all the changes are in'

Re: WHICH UNITS OR AREAS ARE HAVING BALLOTS OR IA
What has happened in your office is just the tip of the iceberg,if your place returns a no vote your job will change beyond recognition,your office must vote YES or before you know it management will be all over you and a part time job will be the norm at your place.k66yla wrote:Well the ballot papers are in, sent mine off today.

God only help them if they don't fight back because this is just the start, there is plenty more to come if they think they'll get away with it.k66yla wrote:Well the ballot papers are in, sent mine off today.

Re: WHICH UNITS OR AREAS ARE HAVING BALLOTS OR IA
I'm hoping the majority don't vote NO. I've explained to the ones that have appeared to have of voted no, but I got the impression it fell on deaf ears.
