Do the screws at your office cross your picket line on strike days ? so why would you do any different if the roles were reversed. . . . .the day they show us some support is the day I would do the same, not before.

Actually as the CMA is an Association not a Union would it be viewed as OK to cross the picket. Image

CMA branch secretary based in our office said they would never be kicked out of Amicus/Unite as when they affiliated with Amicus they took £4million off the CMA and tha CMA are threatening court action.

I'm still bemused as to why anyone needs to give a second thought as to supporting the screws when they show no support whatsoever to us.

Sorry Billy, it was meant to be a piss take - off course I'd cross their picket line as we would work better quicker and with more efficency without them around. But the real reason I would cross was succinctly put by you
when they show no support whatsoever to us.

Cross it? Too right I would! I'd hire the Besses o'the Barn Brass Band to strike up The Internationale as I arrived at the gate, then get the Royal Horse Artillery to fire a 21 gun salute as I marched past the screw scum giving each of them a two fingered salute as the Red Arrows did the 'Bursting Bomb' overhead. Of couse I hope their strike would be very long and bitter. Then I could turn up and give the bailiffs a hand when it came to evicting them and changing the locks on their front doors.

here's hoping that the 21 gun salute is with live ammo and the CMA are tied to the barrel's.

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.

Correction - managers picket lines should be approached "end on" moving from furthest from the gate to nearest the gate - that way you run over all the bastards

Ohhh yes, I would gladly cross it...for whatever reason. In fact I would cross it and then walk back out and dance across it again. I would then report them for calling me names and looking at me in a " threatening way". I would then ask all my colleagues if they too felt threatened, we would call the police to have them tasered and I woulld also invite friends and family to come into my place of waork as well.

Think I made my point...lol :nana

Bloody hell! The lad at the front looks like the screw trying to do me for not wearing my helmet! Anyway, if your wish comes true, make sure you have several bags of mail in that chair, just to let them get the idea of what a hard days work feels like!
