Re: Lost appetite for strike
It doesn't. The whole thing is made up tripe, to cause division, and to try make CWU members feel as though the CWU is a separate, self serving entity, that acts independently of its members, and against their interests. It's absolute baseless, unsubstantiated bile, that has not an ounce of evidence to suggest its even a possibility. It disregards all logic, it makes absolutely not one bit of sense.Woody Guthrie wrote: ↑11 Jan 2023, 17:17How does that benefit the union?2chorizon wrote: ↑11 Jan 2023, 15:21All the 55+ Reps get out on MTSF based VRWoody Guthrie wrote: ↑11 Jan 2023, 15:13What's in it for the union?They secure the MTSF window, and it'll be hidden away in the detail of any new "agreement"![]()

Re: Lost appetite for strike
In our office the reality of the situation has just hit home. Revised walks have just this morning gone up on the board...... Finally the passive posties in our office have had their eyes opened. They now see what these undoable walks mean if comit to deliver, with later start time's and annualized hour's would mean to their lives. Expect to see a bigger yes vote in the reballot.

Re: Lost appetite for strike
If people had done their job properly from day one we wouldn’t be in the situation where posties are looking for ways to drag out their walk.
Do your van check.
Use your lwt.
Take your meal break.
Or just drag your heels now. Personally I always find that if you come to work with that kind of attitude your shift drags with your feet.
Early finishes are gone (or soon will be for the ones that are still getting away with it).
9 walks in my office have been absorbed today. One of the posties kicked off because he is now a reserve. But he’s also a feet dragger. The type who sloth around Monday to Friday, sometimes not even completing, yet on a Saturday whizzes about like usain bolt so he can go to watch football!
Like Radiohead one said…. ‘You do it to yourself, you do…..’

Re: Lost appetite for strike
Will dragging their heels out make any difference now? The screws might work out the average "yellow dot time" (from the actuals data) and just add that amount onto a walk. With RM looking at axing 900 odd walks in the NE region alone, I doubt that there's a single walk that's not going to get stuff added to itFilthyBloke wrote: ↑12 Jan 2023, 08:57Or just drag your heels now.

Re: Lost appetite for strike
Dragging just drags; it is hard to do if one is not a natural at it... Some of us are looking forward to the absorption - more to do and day feels like it goes quicker. And less chances of being pulled up for hanging about or being too slow...
The only downside to absorption or the new revision is if one has to drive miles to do it... And the possibility of the volumes going back up but RM thinks it will still fall further

Unless your office is one in a million there must be a few uncovered duties going begging on a daily basis?chrisj wrote: ↑12 Jan 2023, 10:13Dragging just drags; it is hard to do if one is not a natural at it...

Being the charitable soul that you are,I’m sure management would be all to pleased to allocate you extra on a daily basis,unpaid of course?
Why wait until the next revision?
“Shorts,in this weather?!”
“If they’re bills I don’t want ‘em!”
“What’s she been ordering now?”
