Dont concern yersel postman prob some1 trying to yank our chains or mayb some madman/madwoman/madmanager/madpostperson/madbastarsd/madhatter/mademoiselle or mayb mad Derek mad Hatton fae liverpool.
Or madcustomer/madleighton/madcrozier/madtory/madnewlabour (last two might be the same).

But I'll be there. Been on every picket line for the last 27 years and this one seems like the most important of all.
I sometimes feel a bit apprehensive about support for strikes beforehand, but once I get to the picket and see the level of support I feel ten feet tall and proud of all my fellow workers who stand by the union. :dance :dance :nana :nana

Polls can't be 'fixed' i promise you.
I've only seen '1 No' since i've been looking.
What did you see then?

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.

Lay off the booze for a week that should cover your 4 days lost pay
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

Well you put your occupation down as postal driver.

So can you afford to accept all these things RM is going to impose on us?

I was banned from driving due to drink/drive conviction. I was forced to give up driving but just cannot give up the drink.

Well I hope that what you are saying is just down to the drink and you'll think more clearly about the the consequences of scabbing when you're sober.
