DOCKET MONKEYS

Post by lillywhite »

In our WTL session today regarding the strike we were told that there would be no OT given and no cut off allowed on Saturday,what with the extra mail,each person has to decide when he has enough in his frame to fill his delivery time and not go over.Now this action has many questions to be answered but get this,one person,who daily claims 4hrs mostly by shafting others,said as he will be in on Fri and not on strike surely he can make the most of it and get a few hours in! :mad The boss said he would speak to him privately!! It turns your stomach :sad:

the big worry is wether they forget about us all, we are in this together mate and the CWU has to do a deal that benifits all the postal workers in the CWU
