Suicide is voluntary!

Post by Keith »

You have to choose to be a Numptee ! Check out the real world, your bills and the local job pages ! Most importantly the history of Industrial action defeating a declining industry making changes !
Get real- negotiate while you have the go vote and get something out of it- too many people have already lost money and our credibility is going down the spout !
How many of your colleagues would you like to have a Job- pissing off the customers and owner (plural next year) is not going to improve the situation !

Remember the rules guys. :cuppa

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.

No, suicide would be to stand by and watch as our jobs and the service we provide being eroded for the sake of the private sector fat cats waiting for privatisation, while we do nothing.

Keith

A numptee sits back and ALLOWS royal mail and the governement to tear our postal service to shreds to sell off


do you want


to pay up to £3000 to GUARANTEE a morning delivery as a business

later deliveries as a customer? ooh your late today postie

No post = no jobs in the morning for secretaries, cheques into banks etc etc

Postmen and women dead on the streets from being FORCED to work past their time under threat of having PAY STOPPED due to the management bullying and harassing us?

Pay cuts £20+ a week from jan 2010 as we HAVE TO deliver door 2 door leaflets for free rather than being paid for it? £20+ a week pay cut?? I DONT THINK SO

People employed on 5hour contracts used as and when? How can you live on 5 hours a week? How can you afford to eat and pay for a house

THIS IS JUST FEW EXAMPLES, OTHERS HAVE IT FAR WORSE. NONE BETTER

You have no idea what is happening.

Take your head out of the sand. We are not striking for a laugh,

my house is at threat and my kids xmas is cancelled due to a man ( HIGSON , CROZIER AND THE UNELECTED TWICE DISGRACED MANDELSON) ON MASSIVE SALARIES dictating to me and forcing my full time wages of roughly £270 a week down

f**k off

If Royal Mail is a public service then we are protecting it for you as well as ourselves. If Royal Mail is a private company (like it is being run at the moment - profit at the cost of service) then what has it all got to do with you?

I thought suicide was painless, but it brought on many changes.
Anyhoo.
This isn't a decision that was taken lightly. Keith, if that even is your real name, maybe do some research from both sides and when you read the actual facts, your opinion may change. If it doesn't...Go cry to, Orvile and Cuddles.

Who are you replying to? and what relevance do they have in this discussion?
Did someone ask you about welsh rock groups? Or is it that you have no follow up answers to posts and replies already given?

Sorry- Not taken lightly- I was in the union for 15 years and come from a union background. Te decision to leave was hard. I'd like my kids to see a Royal Mail when they grow up ! I'd like them to see a CWU as well - its important. But it ain't happening now !
