Bt2010 broken, revisions, 100bsi,1 in 4 and mr jenson

Post by mandelsons_toenail »

So another day of hell

Dsm's in east region are now instructing doms in revision or who will undertake one to plan 5 day weeks for duty builder.
What are the union going to do about this?

They have also instructed doms to build their duty builder at 100bsi

Mr jenson is clearly testing our nerve and my office is ready to walk

Cloak and daggers and lots of whispering

How can an office at phase 4 even contemplate 5 day weeks.

To me the dsm has no care about 1 in 4 sats

Rm want savings

My members seem to think this is somehow my doing

1 in 4 doesn't give this.

When's the ballot?

Because we're working later on Saturdays we're supposed to have the opportunity to have more Saturdays off, which is what we should have after a revision.

Sorry we currently pre revision have a few 10 hour days some 9 days and some 5 days

Preferenced all 120+ 9 day fortnight jobs

But min we want is 1 in 4

This isn't going to happen listening to these lot

So I ask again

If rm are insisting on 5 day week jobs, 1 in 6 and 100 bsi before a park and loop revision is signed off when do we ballot and when's the strike?

Rob Jenson in fact agreed a number of joint statements and is now breaking them in his new role as regional management for the East of the country.
Don't panic,Higson knows,now get yaself a cuppa it will be sorted soon.

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.

soon meal relief will be gone, i cannot believe how miserible staff are at the moment, the managers that made so much time in the past, tend to forget this while duties and work loads have increased over time.
pathways are being filmed as well, possibly the end on easy duties.

No we now have various attendance patterns all across the country. The 5 day week is the standard one but there are many others such as:

9 Day Fortnights. (2 versions IIRC)
Wallington Weeks (1 week in 6 off working 6 day weeks)
4 day weeks (9 hour 48 min days)

No 9 day fortnights, 4 day weeks, 1 in 4 Saturdays at my place. We were given the option of fixed day off, rotating day off or a wally week which is what we had before P & L came in. At the moment they are trying to bring in WCM at whatever cost even though P & L has never worked.

Just keep on walking down never ending streets

1 in 4 has been up and running at our place for the past year, with full timers working a five day week, 32.5 hour contracts working a four day week and 25 hour contracts working a three day week. Although the 25 hour contract people have recently been shafted and told they will be moving to a four day week.

But at what cost was that to your full time, part time split?

Be surprised if there are many offices with a 75%/25% split or higher and also with 1 in 4 etc...and those few that might are probably the bigger offices that had more than a 75%/25% split in the first place.

Got told today all revisions will be based on 5 day weeks

Also Dom think 1 in 4 doesn't apply

Office in meltdown

f**k it who cares

Certainly not the union

I ask again

Where are my union when I need them?

Why is a Dom allowed to peddle drivel?

Bt2010

At least 1 in 4 Saturday's off for majority of staff including reserves.

Worded majority for wallington weeks no?

Strike now
