So tell me this...Why are delivery staff out on a Saturday when this week it's a Friday? There's some lucky people out there who are on a day off this Friday and next week will be their long weekend. That'll be two days pay they are keeping whilst people like myself will be losing out each time. I hope the week after that it's not a Monday!!!

Come on Billy, Dave and the gang, get this dispute sorted quick. Have us all out for a full week and force the government to intervene to get a resolution. There would be uproar in Westminster if the whole postal system shut down for a week.

Not at my D.O there isnt were fixed days off so those who have not losta days pay this week will lose next week and those who have lost this week will gain next week.

A system is needed that takes into account rotating days off and fixed days off, perhaps work backwards rather than forwards? Or go forward two days at a time instead of one.
