Re: Managers to stike?
The office boys were close to tears this morning when someone brought the subject up. They're not taking it too well at all. Can it be just seven weeks since they were grinning like the apes they are as they drove past the picket line on their way to deliver RMSD's? Why don't they do what they always tell us to do? Find another job which suits you better. I'm all for giving them support. There's ten yards of rope in the garden shed. That should support two of them at least.the beautiful bd south wrote:It's about time these yes men stood up to be counted.
All we have been told over the past few months is that this is a good deal and you aint going to get a better offer.
How the repeatedly spew out the companies lies is beyond me..

I don't think they will be balloted, because if they vote yes, then they're in the s**t even further, we all know that if no DOMs are about, the job will be still get done, and there are enough garbbers who will divi out the OT amongst them selves.
It's only when we go out that the mail doesn't get delivered.
Plus unless they pick the same days as ours, they will not have any support, and I can't say I want them on the picket with me, thanks very much!

Not sure what the figure is but under H&S there must be a manager for a certain amount of workers, so if we are in while they are out and there are not enough managers to fulfill H&S regulations then it's home time with pay

I'll have some of that mate! In for 6.30, home by 8.00, just like the office boys on a Saturday morning.ade@cambs wrote:Not sure what the figure is but under H&S there must be a manager for a certain amount of workers, so if we are in while they are out and there are not enough managers to fulfill H&S regulations then it's home time with pay

Years ago the managers went on strike as the lads went in the gate in thier cars they all waved as thats how they had been treated in the past,the office for the first time was clear and all the mail went out on the correct despatches and everyone had thier breaks plus extra,thing is nobody really noticed that the managers were not there,they like to think that they are the ones who hold the offices together but the managers must see that they are not,without us they would'nt have a job.

We had it before when they went on strike and we all worked normally and cleared the whole mail system without them being there+ do we really need them?Proven before and it can be proven again!!!!!!!!!!ade@cambs wrote:Not sure what the figure is but under H&S there must be a manager for a certain amount of workers, so if we are in while they are out and there are not enough managers to fulfill H&S regulations then it's home time with pay
