I understand the frustration, but until there is a viable alternative, I wouldn't advise leaving the CWU.

Everyone will get a letter from the union with royal mails new proposals and a explanation why cwu have rejected them. although it should be obvious why already.
As long as members read it.it will reinforce our determination to support industrial action.

I KNOW IT'S NOT IDEAL OR NECESSARILY THE RIGHT WAY, BUT INFORMATION ON THIS SITE IS REALLY UP TO DATE IF ANY OF YOU AT YOUR OFFICE NEED TO KNOW JUST LOOK IT UP HERE.
YOU NEED TO GET A REP WITH A BIT MORE GO AND KNOWLEDGE

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.

We already know what the RM proposals are - what I would be interested in seeing is the CWU proposals. Has anyone seen them?
