Plymouth MDEC Lates - I was in a real dilemna today. Alot of my friends who went on strike last time all went in today, as did I (I really cannot afford to lose money). I decided that although I agree totally with the CWU I cannot afford to lose the money.

However, I too walked out after 30 mins. I wish I'd never crossed the picket line, but I did, and trying to sit and key knowing some of my fellow collegues where outside fighting for all of us made me feeling awfully guilty. So I too left.

MDEC101 - I spoke with Union members outside as I wasn't sure of the result of my action (I didn't inform my manager) and they informed me that they cannot conduct you, all they will do is dock your pay accordingly.

ONE PARTIMER WHO ONLY DELIVERS (20 HR CONTRACT!), AND TWO OF THE SAME AS LASTIMERS! ONE WHO IS A THICKIE WHO WE ALL TAKE PITY UPON - AND ANOTHER WHO REALLY SHOULD KNOW A LOT BETTER, WHO HOPEFULLY GETS THE COLD SHOULDER FROM NOW ON. NOT BAD FOR 'TORYVILLE' BH POSTCODE LAND!!!

DAVE WARD WAS INTERVIEWED BY THE BUSINESS JOHNNY ON 5 LIVE THIS MORN - AND WAS EXCELLENT. IT SEEMS THAT URGENT MEETING ON WEDNESDAY WAS A LEIGHTON PR STUNT. IN FACT HIS W*NKNESS WAS ONLY ON THE PHONE FROM ONE OF HIS OTHER JOBS - I MEAN, CAN YOU BELIEVE THE MAN! 'NO COMMENT' FROM 5 LIVE JOCKEYS, BUT I ASSUME EYEBROWS WERE RAISED.

FIGHT OR DIE!!!
