Re: Who's a rep on here
Hi there,
i took over as Rep in Nov 2011, its been an eye opener to say the least. I am this week doing my Union Skill 1 course, i've found it very helpful but not half as helpful as being in a room with 10 other CWU reps for 7 hours a day, its really is a learning curve and listening to them 10 people is as good an education than i could hope for.

So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

Re: Who's a rep on here
I once went on a course for sarcasm but I wasn't very good at it.
Royal Mail managers.....about as popular as a t.urd in a swimming pool!
The DDA/Equality Act demands action,NOT words......adjustments NOT Occupational Health referrals.Case No:2505901/09
Royal Mail is an Equal Opportunities Employer..It discriminates against everybody.

You won't get any training if you don't ask for it.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

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.

Re: Who's a rep on here
I'm considering becoming our office union rep because at the moment we don't have one. He resigned his post when I challenged him to speak to our manager about how the park and loop staff were getting shafted big time. He spent more time in the managers pocket than on delivery! What I want to know is - do you actually get some training to do the job properly? I've got the backing of half the office (the park and loopers) but I want to do a good job for the office in general. I've been a postie 17 years now and there's things that happen in my office that I'm certain wouldn't be tolerated anywhere else but as our former union rep was getting well and truly tucked up...he didn't care. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Re: Who's a rep on here
Yes there is a postal agreements and procedures course which will give you the initial training, I would also recommend doing Union Skills 1,2 and 3.
There is a mandatory equality and diversity course to do if you become the rep.
The next Postal agreements and procedures course is late October at Alvescot Lodge in Oxfordshire which is the CWU's Education and Training Centre.
