Of course he did, the front line managers are finally seeing that they'll be expected to follow our shift patterns and "new" ways of working, and guess what they don't like it. Now they know they're just as valued and respected by dumb and dumber as we are.
There was a deal as i posted before,but RM came in and pulled it Sun Night!
Yes I heard from a rep that it was an eleventh hour ammendmant...He was mighily pigged off when he found out that we had been so close to a viable agreement and only to have it pulled out and that recent load of cobblers added.
-Like everything Royal Mail do -it's deliberately vague , underhand & ambigious ; BUT I don't think this has been pulled out of a hat like the pensions expose , they've tried to railroad through a revised attendance scheme as they think it takes too much time to get rid of people especially when they know how to play RM's system , removal of DDA Protection , they've wanted it trialed ,they've tried to force teamworking in at RDC's etc . Everything is put back on the backburner to be recycled earlier-PERIOD OF CALM -B*****KS .
I used to go on H*****l because it was the only one I could get on when I got broadband on ,as I prefer Macs but I've never known such a bickering , bitter union bashing forum and I've done 4 strikes . I used a XP PC and got on this and it was a breath of fresh air but I do remember a certain Boggie 40 RM propoganda plant saying " I really feel for the older guys AS THIER JOBS WILL BE CHANGED OUT OF RECOGNITION ", so this is deliberately premeditated but RM had only one plan it was a Thatcher/ Mc Gregor V Scargill game plan.There's a split apparently between Crozier & Leighton , Crozier's ganged up on Leighton with select senior managers who've come from outside industries/businesses and are very union hostile even more so than 2003 , and that's saying something . There's been some nasty sneery arrogant Senior mgrs on as mods who even RM/Hellmail pulled . The one not to trust is Crozier , he's a bad reputation at the FA and it's was he pushed or did he have to jump , Leighton's just a jumped up salesman , all bluff and bluster etc . Others that were headhunted are McAVOY , I've heard things about BAE at Warton & Samlesbury locally ,the other one was Crawford from Bombardier Shorts in Ulster , he'd 273 redundancies to force through by fair means or foul, he'd 474 Tribunual Cases against him.
Just be careful RM are trying to force a All Out strike . Typical F*****g Royal Fail just one F*****g idea ! : :cfo WAKE UP CWU PEC & GET REAL -OTHERWISE YOU'LL FALL INTO THE THICK POSTMEN IN SUITS THAT ARE LEADING YOU ALL UP THE GARDEN PATH PIGEON HOLE THAT RM MOD PLANTS ARE TRYING TO IMPRESS ON MEMBERS . PMC are doing a tell the CWU Where to shove it topic _" Jobs on the line , let down by the Union Hierachy , conditions worsening " -PMC aren't pushing that line for nothing !
