polling cards again

Post by unionjack0 »

Hi
After being told on monday by our dom that our pollcards had to be delivered over the next three days and that there would be a payment on them,he suddenly had a change of heart yesterday and said that there was to be no payment,great news not, after the whole office had cleared them.When i queried this with the area rep he agreed with the dom no payment, so i printed off a copy of the election material agreement to show the dom today and was told this was a cwu document not a royal mail one.So i was just wondering how i get in contact with this bob gibson has he an email address telephone no or do i go through the cwu website

See the agreement in the global announcement on the site.

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.
