why does royal mail hate theyre workforce

Post by billiard ball »

we can all agree that we have got to allan leightons american dream in the post office, where profit and money is king, people dont matter, and are expendable. the message to all the managers is if you are not a nasty sod you are not doing a good job. royal mails dream is to compress targets from the top, all the way down to the skivvies, i mean people at the bottom, to have a 45 hours week work to complete, but only pay them 39 hours, tottaly unachevable, but who cares if they cant complete theyre work, then they can piss off. theyres loads of people with the help of immigration waiting to take theyre job, happy days indeed. our only hope is to say no to these 1824 working practices, but unfortunately trades unionism is a dirty word nowadays with murdochs right wing empire helping the feckless come to that conclusion,. as we cant stick together we can at least get payed our fair share of profits, go the john lewis and waitrose way of paying the workers, and not royal mails way of treating them lean, becuase if you give them any perks they will get greedy, and it wont help with production . my message to royal mail top wigs is shame on you. SHAME ON YOU ALL, come the revolution, soon please?????,

we must through the trades union force royal mail to put people before, or at least on a simular importance to profit, it helps no one if this business isnt at least breaking even. the senior management say the days of blank cheques are over, except when they pay theyre own salleries that is?. royalmail and theyre henchmen will continue to take take and take some more, there is no quench to theyre greed. they will increase lapsing to the delivery postman, they will push at every chance to squeeze more for less. trades unionism must be stronger. it appears the union have let them do what they want in the workplace to protect full time jobs and no redundancies. i personally think they have been nieve, whats to stop the RM after they have sold 49% tearing up this agreement and making more workers part time. the deliver postman is now facing shared vans which few want, we are going home more tired than ever,and RM say its working smarter not harder, come on ?? we will be taking the van drivers pkts and they are trying to make deliveries even longer?, make household deliveries as live mail,dont make me laugh they have timed this daily work as a whole 4 minutes xtra.. we neeed strong leadership not just with the cwu, but all unions.

and for all you managers out there, youre not all bad i know youre assesements put you under pressure to be harder on the workforce to maxamise profits. but it aint much different to hitlers orders to his managers, some took hitlers orders to the word, and some realised they were wrong and discreetly at least put people 1st. think about it these orders are coming from very clever people at the top of industry who are backed by the elite who want to live of other peoples sweat. while they and theyre families, and theyre families families, lol, live the life of riley, or crozier, or leighton, or any other chief executive you care to mention.

of course the ones who never take theyre royal mail hats of not even for theyre childrens birthdays, will say we are only asking people to work the hours they are paid for. or the old classic the gross money that the royal mail generates is huge, and the profit is very small. or were just protecting youre job by being efficent. these are old classics from the private sector to use as excuses to put all the eggs in businesses baskets while the workers get a pittance. this nonsense cant go on, and the workers will rise to cut through this legalised theft.

It might help if you said no to the 1824 ideas about immigrants as well.

Christ, yes lets live in a left wing utopia, where everybody and everything is ok! I'm sure the millions of victims of left wing policies will rise from their graves and give the thumbs up.

POLISH POLITICAL PARTIES

The transformations of 1989 brought fundamental change to the political and party system in Poland. The Polish United Workers' Party, which had previously enjoyed hegemony for its Communist ideology, was obliged to relinquish this status in favour of political pluralism. Initially, the political divide was a clear-cut line between groups and parties that emerged from the Solidarity movement, and the post-Communist groups. Currently, this division has become somewhat vaguer and of lesser effect, and in many ways the Polish political scene now resembles European and world patterns.

Thus, the political parties in Poland represent a broad range of public consensus, with groups which may be classified as social-democratic, liberal, conservative, national, rural-interest, or populist. There are also radical groups with a negligible amount of public sympathy. Some observers of the Polish political scene have endeavoured to define a traditional division into left-wing, right-wing, and centre, but in practice very few of the existing parties may be accurately described in terms of such definitions.
The biggest political parties in Poland are:

The Civic Platform (PO)
The Law and Justice Party (PiS)
The Democratic Left Alliance (SLD)
The Polish Peasants' Party (PSL)

The Citizens' Platform (PO) was created in 2001 by Andrzej Olechowski, Donald Tusk, and Maciej Płażyński (then Speaker of the Senate), former members of the UD and AWS parties. The Citizens' Platform is a group which represents the liberal electorate, private entrepreneurs and business circles, as well as all who want a wholesome and robust state based on a free-market economy and the principle of competition.

The Law and Justice Party (PiS) is a right-wing party which cherishes the traditions of independence and derives from the Solidarity movement of the 1980s. PiS represents a right-wing electorate which favours a traditional social order, a free-market economy, a strong and wholesome state, the principle of law and order and a resolute fight against crime and corruption. PiS was created in 2001.

The Democratic Left Alliance (SLD) is a party established in 1999 from a coalition of the same name. Alliance participated in the last elections with the Democratic Party, the Polish Social Democracy and the Labour Union under the name of the Left and Democrats (LiD) movement, while now it has it's own parliamentary club - the Left. The Alliance represents social democratic outlook both in the social and economic area.

The Polish Peasants' Party (PSL) is a modern rural-interest party; it sees itself as a centre party. It has been a member of the government coalition with the Democratic Left Alliance and the Labour Union. PSL represents the interests of farmers and agricultural employees, residents of rural areas and country towns. The PSL looks back to the political traditions of the large agrarian communities in Poland before the Second World War and Stanisław Mikołajczyk's PSL, which was the only independent political party tolerated in a brief spell from 1945 to 1947.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So my reading of the above would suggest that far from a Left wing utopia their Politics are broadly similar to ours. :roll:

The Polish Peasants' Party (PSL) - Countryside Alliance
The Democratic Left Alliance (SLD) - New Labour
The Law and Justice Party - UKIP,
The Citizens' Platform (PO) - Conservatives

ahh yes, when things are going well for yourself in this twisted form of capitalism, lets keep a lid on it by bringing up failed communist states, and socialist governments who couldnt control the workers. you see the workers dont need controling when they are getting a fair crack at the whip. the top 5% of earners in this world dont want fairness, they want theyre selfish greed to continue, im not a communist, theyre is a fairer way of rewarding the workers in this world, and spreading the wealth around, of course if you are talented, intelligent, or hard working, you must be rewarded for your efforts, but the corporate saleries are disgusting and immoral, and who can blame immigrants from going to countries that pay 5 times the wages of your own country, i would do the same,, unions must protect and increase wages when companys are doing well, and of course if companys are losing money then we must do whatever we can, even pay cuts to protect help out. but when you have companys using immigration to help push down wages and working conditions to maxamise theyre greed its immoral and wrong. unfortunately its hard to reason with people, whos salary depends on them disagreeing with you ?
