Getting a bit fed up with this...

Post by pistol »

R.M.C...An invaluble source of information regarding strikes,points of general interest and finding out what Royal mail and it's puppets are doing elsewhere in the country, frankly however it's getting a bit boring! Every new thread i read starts off interesting and informative then quickly becomes slateing opportunity for whingers and whiners who are convinced the union has gone out of thier way to destroy thier personal life and that by calling off the strike was an attack at them personally...i tire of this garbage...By all means air your views vent your frustrations, your opinions can often be of value, but if you don't wish to strike again fine..but i don't want to keep hearing about it..if you have lost faith in the union..fine..resign tomorrow but again i have no interest in it..i understand this will alienate some people but if my post offends you..i'm sure you will find some way to have a moan about it. just not on here eh?? Thank you.
if you aint payin..the mails stayin!!!

Calling off the strikes is a hot topic,in a few weeks time,maybe days,there will be other hot topics.
Don't forget the new members also who haven't aired their views.
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.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

well said again cut off king...THIS IS NOT A SITE PURELY FOR SLAVISH A****SE LICKING OF CWU OFFICIALS....

...it is where anyone can come and express their view, well informed or not....

..the fact that people are prepared to waste their valauble time making postings says to me they do have a degree of interest and concern in what happens at RM and how they treat "THEIR PEOPLE"....

...some of us actually want a union that is democratic and actually lives up to the principles of trade unionism...improving the terms and conditions of their paying members, not surrendering them....

now remind me. if there is no pay rise this year...how many years is it since we got one or will get one?

...I make it 4....and what was I saying about improving members terms and conditions?

3. SECTION 1: EMPLOYEE PAY AND BENEFITS

1.1 A non-consolidated lump sum of £175 per FT employee pro-rata for PT employees (covering the April to September period). This is funded by the ESOS pot. (Area based and Network drivers will not be eligible for the lump sum.)

1.2October 1st 2007: A pay increase of 5.4% for all grades (except network drivers) on basic pay (including London pay ranges), weekday overtime and Scottish Distant Islands Allowance only.
1.3 Early shift allowances in delivery retained as grandfather rights (for those in receipt since April 2007), including those in receipt of equivalent MTSF payments for changes made since May 2005. We will agree how this money, and equivalent MTSF payments for early shifts, may be used going forward as part of the pay restructuring process in Joint Working Group 2 – if no satisfactory solution is found then grandfather rights will be retained. The early shift payment is ceased in delivery on agreement to pay restructuring.

1.4 To support modernisation phase one and two:

50:50 productivity scheme as set out in the appendix of this offer
£400 of the potential ColleagueShares dividend payment will be made in April 2008 to offices which have completed their deployment of the agreed unit plan in Phase 2 of the modernisation process.
The remaining potential dividend payment from ColleagueShares scheme over this year and next, split as follows:
£400 for achievement of Group profit in 2007/08
£200 for achievement of the local target for 2008/09.
£200 for achievement of Group profit in 2008/09

1.5 April 2008: A 1.5% increase for all grades on basic pay (including London pay ranges), weekday overtime and Scottish Distant Islands Allowance only.
This payment will be made locally when the flexibility defined as phase 3 in section two of this agreement has been implemented.

1.6ESOS will be closed immediately and the pot has been exhausted (subject to the ongoing joint audit) but will continue to accrue monies from the automation projects and closure plans already in the scheme at 10 October 2007.

1.7The next pay review will be April 2009.
