But i would just tell you that.

You are 100% correct there is the possibility of 3 revisions, although as sequenced mail is due by the end of 2011 it would be utterly stupid to have three. Delivery methods sequenced mail 39 hour week look set to be combined into one revision due to RM's lack of planners.
So why again are you having this one,why not wait like the rest of us,mine is in May-ish next year,we will probably have the del m /wsm ones in one hit,and we're not doing anything till then.

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.

If we didnt have this revision then we would still have to have another revision after the DMS/WSM/SWW.

I dont expect to have DMS before WSM as WSM will be with us by the end of 2011 and assuming that plays out like that its two revisons as per 2010.

The powers that be agreed to SS revisions in order to get attendance patterns and the £200 lump sum for the members. Im optimistic that will work out for my D.O as plan C is more tweaking than full scale revision.
