Rep says its a great deal!
Work in a small office in North Yorkshire and today, area manager and area union rep both came to the office and both were saying what a good deal it was! The union rep told one p/t worker they would get more hours
! First time we have seen him in a year and this is what he says!

Re: Rep says its a great deal!
Its even more disgusting when u think about it.
Part timers you will get what.. 4 more hours a week..........
THESE 4 HOURS ARE BASICALLY GOING TO BE WORKED FOR FREE AFTER THE PAYCUT OF AROUND £35 PER WEEK.
WAKE UP
taking pay off you and forcing you to work more to make up for it.!!!!!! - WHICH WOULD NORMALLY BE OVERTIME MONEY

Sorry I dont understand the pay cut bit. My shift allowance is £4.65 whilst the increase to basic pay is £5.20 on a 30 hour week. I will have £15.45 supplement and my DTD when I do them certainly do not come anywhere £50 a week which is the figure I would need to take a £35 paycut.
If I had £50 DTD money I would be gagging at the bit to do my 80% not giving them to my floater.

Re: Rep says its a great deal!
VOTE WITH YOUR WALLET AND LEAVE THE UNION LIKE I DID YEARS AGO WHEN THE UNION AGREED FOR US TO DELIVER DOOR TO DOORS IN ONE WEEK INSTEAD OF TWO. THEY ARE NOT INTERESTED IN THE WORKING POSTMAN AS WE NOW KNOW

The sooner we get rid of all the people who hate the union the better and what did you do when we were all out on strike.postmanpat9 wrote:VOTE WITH YOUR WALLET AND LEAVE THE UNION LIKE I DID YEARS AGO WHEN THE UNION AGREED FOR US TO DELIVER DOOR TO DOORS IN ONE WEEK INSTEAD OF TWO.

Re: Rep says its a great deal!
Yeah, getting back to the point of this post. Our local rep seems to be trying to say its a good deal but looks kinda sheepy about it. Hard sell tactics indeed. Why don't they just be honest about it. It's a crap deal and everyone knows it.

Re: Rep says its a great deal!
And that would achieve what exactly? I don't particularly like the union nor have I done for a few years, but I've still supported them and gone out on strike, admittedly as time goes by I wonder why I'm paying my £3 especially with deals like 2007 and this apparently great deal we could get now!The sooner we get rid of all the people who hate the union the better and what did you do when we were all out on strike.
The union needs "tweaking" higher up as people like Hayes appear to be out of touch with the real union - swanning off and doing talks, bloated pay packet, no wonder he's out of touch. Ward is no better, if they think this is a great deal they aren't doing a very good job of convincing me or anyone else (in all fairness the deal isn't that bad, it's the lack of any firm details that RM will exploit, just like the 2007 deal).
