Waiting patiently

[north london driver]

i am surprized that our union does not ask for a special conferance to be held on xmas eve.
just to kill a few more days on this toilet paper deal.
BILLY YOUR DAYS ARE NUMBERED.
SORRY I FORGOT YOUR NOT INVOVLED

p.s when do the talks start for 2014-15 paydeal.

In the guise of Monty pythons life if Brian"right this calls for immediate discussion". Or in more modern day terms #pathetic.

I agree with you and have said this from the beginning but I suppose you just got to hope the union have a master stroke up there sleeve.

They certainly have, I remember dingo saying there was a rabbit to be pulled out of the hat, that was about three weeks ago soooooo it's either one hell of a deep hat or they've lost the rabbit AND the plot.

I'm not one for conspiracy theories, but half of me, sort of thinks (possibly) that there has to be some dodgy dealings going on here. It's as likely an explanation for this whole calamity as any. When a company becomes privately owned, in what was already a wholly suspect floatation, there is big money floating around, and the opportunity for corruption rife and plentiful.

Whoa there Bernie you're not suggesting some people bought shares who shouldn't have and don't want to rock the boat are you?

About 6 months ago - the original pay deal was for 3 years.
