If I was asked to form a picket for 3 days next week, yesterday, I would have said no, I can't afford it. Today, I'd want to know how long they'd want me on the line.....anything up to 72hrs!

I thought RM would fast track our wage slips to us just to piss us off a bit more - well bring it on I say. We don't give in to bullies and this is just what they are doing petty spiteful Pratt's.

It will not get me to go back to work - I will just eat rice and beans - I mean look at " I'm a celebrity get me out of here" they done it roflmfao!

Fack it - push comes to shove I will do what I did when I was on the dole & getting no benefit ( a previous employer had f*cked up my contributions ) - stop eating & live on tea and cigarettes.....might be a good practice before I'm due for my pension at age *60 / 65 / 68 / let RM pick a number ( *delete as applicable )

Pissed off?! Nah...just determined. Hungry and determined!!

not one of the brightest thing they have done, having said that we were expecting to be docked 4 days pay, 3 in my case as my day off is Saturday, I more or less expected it and budgeted accordingly so I won't get caught out.

be interesting to see what the deal will come up with, if it is crap then of course I would have to vote no.
