Shafted Again already.

[Kings Norton]

Shafted again this time by our own work colleagues.
Apparently posties in my office are putting plans in to place already about working their days off and working overtime the week commencing Nov 4th to make back the money they have lost over the coming strike/s this is another way of being scab/s.
Work to rule would have hurt Royal Mail more than silly the 24 hour strikes. By the way when is the next strike 12th & 20th of November where the same people get paid once again as it falls on their day off like last time?
Union picked a Monday to strike RM will kill us on the Tuesday the light day has nobody got a brain in that Union? Thursday/ Friday would have been more acceptable.

This is why we have also announced, that if an agreement cannot be reached, we will soon hold a second ballot for action short of a strike enabling a boycott of the competitors’ mail.If necessary, a second ‘yes vote’, will also open up options for other tactics such as work to rules, overtime bans and non co-operation with unrealistic efficiency demands

it will be the same in our office,we've already had the " well, i'll be crossing the picket line,i can't afford to lose a days pay" and that's before the results even in. people are people,some are strike breakers and some of them work for royal mail .you just have to try and rise above it .

I've been making plans with other work colleagues as well....it's been terrible deciding who does what, but we came to the conclusion that bacon butties a brolly and some comfy chairs are a must while we sit at the gates this year

Absolutely goddamn right.

Personally speaking I would prefer a week long strike with a work to rule after, see how long it takes them to recover from that.
