Know how you feel,sympathy brother. You get a lot of s**t for a long time before you even get a sniff of union support if at all. Dirty tricks ,victimisation,harassment and even your decent union workmates are by and large too frightened and cowed to back you up. Still nice to see the new culture of mutual respect and cooperation is alive and flourishing

[Lincox]

Belial, you are on your own mate, there is no difference between those who run the unions and those who run the country and the large businesses. They are out to drain the last fluid ounce of blood from the working man. I have long given up supporting colleagues who have not got the courage or conviction to make a difference to this society, and now the whole of my body and strength is used to look after number one and fight number ones cause. Might sound selfish but after years of trying to help and support other work colleagues, and getting back no support in return, and seeing the way the capatalist society is decimating what was once a great country with community spirit, I think that no 1 deserves some time.

[BELIAL]

I'll give it a bit longer, not ground into the dirt yet

The same in our office, even the other posties just think your taking the piss and make comments to the boss. They don't want you to cause disruption cause it may danger their easy rounds. In a way the job and finish part of the business can be a bad thing (not that I want rid of it) cause it does give a every man/woman for themselves attitude. Especially in our office, as long as some of the lads can get their rounds done in a good time and are relatively easy they dont give a s**t for the others who struggle with theirs and constantly work to their time or more often over.

39 hour week needs revision, some offices will no doubt have WS mail before a revision takes place. That is ideal as changes can be planned on reality and not educated guess.

Does that reality include continued use of private cars;coming in early-unpaid;unsecure bag drops;stepping ; missing meal reliefs; unpaid OT; abuse of flexibility ;etc.etc.???
