It'll be up the chain who's cancelled it, ours has been postponed over and over again because they need to put hours in.

possible ours was due on Monday had been agreed by the Union and RM, at all levels - got to the Bean Counters and they nixed it. Revision and payments now cancelled/postponed - apparently at the Directors level now.

It looks from what DOM says is that the finanacial bods want all savings now rather than 50% now and the rest when DM goes in.

All these revisions being put on the back burner because the savings are not what they want,which goes against the agreement (lol),why are we not pulling out of all revision activity nationwide.

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.

The doves :left: negotiated BT 2010 and they were cool with the revision process putting in hours if necessary.
The hawks :left: are now in the hotseat and though they spout the same bullshit, the revision process was always a cost saving exercise for them.
Offices where a DMR show the need for extra hours to be put in are in the s**t. Hawk s**t.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

ML2 was supposed to be done last year, still not happened afaik, but they are still messing around with the walks. The revision cancelled rumour has been going around since last October. Although, have found the area rep is rather good at keeping people in the know, or he was when I was still there :wink:

Our revision has been postponed indefinitely as well. Its not all good news though as our DOM seems to have decided to make the saving by using B&H to make us do extra work for free instead! :shock:

It seems the Network logistics 2011 review/revision is still going ahead, so as to achieve our £400 bonus for its implementation.
