You've hit the nail on the head there stokes, we have never had a bonus scheme that we actually control, let alone understand. With a scheming management like we have at the moment look what happened to the 50/50, we haven't had a penny and the share scheme is a sham. It wouldn't be too bad if, like the managers it was something like 4k with a proportion added to the pension fund - but - like you I'd prefer a pay rise which is obviously multiplied over the years on each percentage rise.

Totally agreement with every thing.Especialy with summer lapsing being rolled out to almost every office.And as for a bonus schme,could someone explain what it is,since we have never had one one in our office.We did away Nights and promissed a bonus ,then RM said we never maid enough savings .Last year Pegus 1 was introduced to our office by Management not workers ,result about £500,000 over office budget,if all goes weel with exsisting budgets now on course for a bonus thing in 10 years time when deficuit is cleared.

This strike though the members should vote on the settlement offfered, Last time a lot of people felt been sold down the river by NATIONAL OFFICERS including good hardworking local Reps.

Rubbish - there's no such thing as Yorkshire Day - next you'll be professing there's a Pie Day in Yorkshire as well, often visited by a well known celebrity in union circles :chuckle :chuckle :chuckle

The next pie day was rather inward looking, celebrating 200 years since the first. The dish was the same depth as previously, but measured 20 feet by 7 feet, once again the world's biggest pie.

Lets see, that would be 1988 then and coincides with obesity problems encountered in the dales - fortunately I live over the border in the Red Rose County, where obesity is unheard of and we only eat salads and flied lice ;liar
