royal mail dividends payout

[shoelessjoe]

having a discussion with a manager about the shares dividend payout,when i mentioned how much after tax,his answer was it was a bonus for nothing,i corrected him and said probably for some but for others having to pull work in and no extra hours,ie lapsing on delivery or having to justify work being left.i think that the staff are being asked to gamble what would have been paid on o/t and in the following weeks wages, against a possible dividend at the end of july the next year.now if you work out how many o/t hours in terms of money against the money from the shares dividend you have just received see how you would have fared.i think the manager i spoke to must have been watching The MILL on sunday night,where you have to doff your cap and touch your forlock,thank goodness for the union or we would returned back to those days,to quote stanley baldwin.had the employers of past generations all of them dealt fairly with their men and women there would have been no unions.
