Royal mail modernisation leaflet

Post by steven100 »

Today i was overjoyed :crazy: to receive a letter from RM about pay and modernisation. I opened it and read it with great enthusism, well having a right good laugh and thinking what a lot of ****.

Flexability is only one way in RM eyes.

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.

Everything in the leaflet is reasonable

Pity it doesnt reflect the truth as to what is happening

I forgot to read mine before it was recycled. Was it the usual patronizing guff?

yeah i had mine today too, its just a anti -strike leaflet in my eyes :wink:

on a similar line our DOM told us today that he had to give us a anti -strike chat :whistle

he was supposed to tell us what RM has done for us,so he stood there and told us that
"RM have cut your jobs"
"RM have made you work later hours"
"RM have imposed flexibility"
"RM given you a pay freeze"
and he finished his talk by saying i don't blame you all for voting YES :left: and he then walked off :shock: :d'oh!

Good to see a manager with a backbone who is not afraid to stand up and tell the truth, i would like to quote adam crapier "RM employees 25% overpaid 40% under worked compared to the competitors" now the main reason for that is the CWU and its members are willing to loose money in the short term (strikes) for good wages and T&C's over the long term. Now the knock on effect of this is, RM managers are also paid 25% more than the competitors and what sacrifices or fight have they put up to get it naff all, in fact at the moment they are volunteering to come from all over the UK to scab and try to break the very strikes that will in the long term help their terms and conditions and keep their wages 25% above the competition.So come on all our fellow cma comrades join us in our fight instead of fighting against us and ultimately against your selfs.
