No News from the CWU are we fcukd

Post by dogfood »

Close of Business Monday after getting an e mail stating that talks had broken down meeting of the Postal Exec today to consider next move.

Any idea whats going on or are we all well and truly shafted. I find it difficult to see what the union can do unless it is prepared to get a little more hardline. Problem with this is that the right wing press will label it going back to the 70s which the Torygraph have already taken that line this morning.

What is the feeling in your office at the moment?
Is there still the will to strike?

For every man that makes his stand there seems like there are 2 fu8king arse licks to stand in for him.

I am a little demoralised with the lack of communication from the CWU.
What was the cause of the breakdown?
What issues could not be agreed?
What consessions from both parties had been made?
Do we need to ballot again?
Why has no immediate notice for further rolling strikes been given keeping in mind that we need to give 7 days notice?

Oh f*ck loads of questions and a little pis*ed off right now.

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.

YES- well and truely, with a big pole

NO-count your losses in your pay packet, all that cash and you still didn'y get a victory

NO- it's called being sensible, making rational decisions. You probably wouldn't know

I am a little demoralised with the lack of communication from the CWU.
And there was me thinking it was just the business that failed to communicate, you lot have been sold down the river. HOOK LINE and SINKER. Got caught up in their spin and bought it, oh what an expensive lesson

What was the cause of the breakdown?
As usual the CWU get a little excitable when they don't get agreement, spit the dummy out and storm out of the meetings
