I do know that a week ago the managers in the HU area where predicting many more would cross the picket lines this time :Very Happy well they got that wrong only two did in the Mail centre out of around 400 on site. One was the always going to cross and the other is a managers bird.

I can see this is the pattern across a lot of the country and this could well be one of the main reasons RM has now decided over the weekend to take part in meaningful talks.

We are not there yet, but togther as in the past we can win and the public are moving behind our cause as we spread the word on the doorstep.

Well done :Applause :Applause :Applause :Applause :Applause
:confused They brought their girlfirends in now :no no :no no

No ................................

she lives with him and is now an acting manager

Out of an office of about 90 staff delivery and collection.
23 Oct: 6 crossed the picket line 3 full time/3 part time inc 1 newbie
31 Oct: Only 2 went in

So far the strike in our office has been better supported than 2007 when about 15 went in.

The picket line has been well supported with at least 15 of us at any time with a barbie on the go and sausages & bacon supplied free by a local butcher :Applause

The local paper has been down on both days to take our photos.

Thread redundant :neutral:
I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
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.
My BFF Clash
The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Perhaps not completely - in Decemeber London region UNISON agreed £5k for the London hardship fund (from 16 - 23 days out for all of us from March to October last year). So much food brought to the last picket line we had to take some home! We need to show solidarity with others taking action as the next Government continues to fund bankers and war while attacking ordinary workers....
