Vote Yes and take the money
Royal mail will do what they want anyway so we might as well get the lump sum and let it all go pear shaped cause the managers in my office aint got a clue, it takes them all their time to stop surfing the web and playing golf on the computers

Re: Vote Yes and take the money
It ain't going to be a 'Lump Sum' its broken up into little chunks spread out, why would you want to be shafted for money that you were already entitled to?zuvinrat wrote:Royal mail will do what they want anyway so we might as well get the lump sum and let it all go pear shaped cause the managers in my office aint got a clue, it takes them all their time to stop surfing the web and playing golf on the computers
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets
Illegitimi non carborundum

Re: Vote Yes and take the money
Whats going to happen in four weeks time when david cameron is prime minister and we voted no. We will have nothing no agreement no job no future no royal mail, it winds me up that in our office all the workers during the strikes say vote no what they expect me to lose more money for them as if we vote no they will still work and work their day of on strike days give it a rest and get a backbone this is the best we will get and any one who thinks a no vote will help us are deluded.

Come October if you've got the years by seniority and you want to leave this sinking ship you will have an excellent chance to do so.

I think you'll find Brown and his ministers esp Mandelson want to do just as much as Cameron does to RM re: privitisation. They are one and the same so why are worry about a Tory government? No difference.

Re: Vote Yes and take the money
tell you what, theres a hard core of about a couple o hunner " vote no" boys on here, and thats about it.
Its a stone waller the yes vote will go through, ive no doubt about it, when you take in all the pissy wee offices, the rural offices that are trod on year in year out, the thousands that dont ever come on here, those on here that are voting yes, any the army of cwu members who wont even vote, or worse, will, when the ballot comes out- ask-whats this for!!!
My area rep is going about proposing a yes to the deal, and i bet its the same all over the country,us typewriter terrorists have no chance i reckon.
Sometimes i think, ive seen it all before, and then i think,money talks, regardless of the deal, money wins every time.
What do you reckons gonna happen if a no vote is returned, royal mail renegotiates- no chance, implement what they want on their conditions, and were back to executive action, the runners still run, the part timers fight for 2 hours docket, and the car boys get out the door an hour early, finished 2 hours early.
In a way , a yes vote will put an end to all this,if your rep is strong.
s**t- futbas on- im off

Re: Vote Yes and take the money
Every thread on here seems to be the same one, rephrased with the usual bods hoping that if they say NO enough, it might rub off. Those that do want to vote YES don't bother posting after a while or won't come on here anyway, which leaves a minority pinning its hopes on polls that are totally meaningless. 
Don't believe everything you're told in the rest room

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.

You can say that but I've asked loads of people in our DO and not one has said they will vote Yes. Even our DOM thinks it's a crap deal.

I have still to find anyone who admits to voting yes in the way forward or pay and mod....... somebody must have.opgpat wrote:You can say that but I've asked loads of people in our DO and not one has said they will vote Yes. Even our DOM thinks it's a crap deal.
what someone says to their colleagues can be very different to what they say in the home with their partner as they cross the box.
Plus the comms from the union with the ballot paper are vital as its the last thing you see before voting
