ST has stated that as staff who attended on strike days this week refused to go and work at other offices where required he is now closing the offices he opened (so all staff could attend all offices)
on wednesday next week and is also considering closing them on the thursday too.
Intention is to run with the parcel hub offices only.

There you go, people were willing to go back into their own offices but apparently not willing to go and work at someone else's office if they needed labour, so now he is going to lock them out if they don't agree to go where required.

Why would this not apply on the first day of next week's strike i.e Wednesday?

If you read the comments it does, wed closed and considering closing thurs as well,
or maybe as it says managers in these units to speak to staff who attend, they might be open on wed to give people who attend the speech and if they wont play ball then boom all closed on thurs.

Going back in because you think it will save your bacon will now involve being messed about, travelling to other units and subjected to ST's Pettiness.

Some may find themselves back on the line like it or not.

What’s most worrying is this seems to suggest an acceptance that next weeks strikes will be going ahead and no effort is being put into solving it. Get the feeling Thompson and Royal Mail are going to ride the next 4 weeks out then they have pretty much won.

A few that went in at my office didn’t want to go out and deliver, they wanted to stay in and prep , Simon sees this as a waste of resources.

RM would have had to arranged transportation for them as most people's car insurance policy will only cover them to their REGULAR place of work

Do you really think any Strike Breakers are going to give a shite about that (unless of course they can use it as an excuse).

There's enough people out there (not suggesting they're Royal Mail Staff) who drive pissed ... drugged up .... texting on their phones .... driving without Business Insurance is small fry! Know anyone that's ever been done for it? :cuppa

Fancy that after Strike Breaking to help the Company out .... You're going to get a taste of what the Company are planning for all of us. Perhapss Simon will order all the Strike Breakers to come into work on Sunday to help Break the Strike? :cuppa

The strike breakers in our office refuse to go out on delivery. They look at strike days as easy money for them. Which it is, and Simon has finally realized.
