The union not learning from their mistakes then with this kind of activity already used against us to help stop industrial action .
The views I express here are mine alone and do not represent the views of Royal Mail Group.

Yes that's correct. Did you think royal mail are going to pay you for you to listen to the union?

Noticed today that someone started 15 mins early ....and then claimed 5 mins docket. Beggars belief. Can't say if they had their full break either.

The whole idea of National Gate meeting day is to prove to Royal Mail that although they got an injunction to prevent the CWU taking industrial action we are still as strong as ever and united as a membership. We have to show them that this dispute will not be won in court and that the only way to solve it will be to negotiate an agreement with a united union. So what if you have to use 20 min of your meal break it has to be worth it. We cannot allow this dispute to fizzle out. So support your union as you have been up to now.We cannot afford to lose this battle.

No gate meeting or any info at ours.

There was a stampede though when Dom announced there was a sheet for people to put there name on if they want to come in early or work their days off for the next 4 weeks. I thought there was a fire the amount of people running to get their names down.

Most of them were the loudest let's strike crowd and the moaners :arrrghhh :arrrghhh :arrrghhh :arrrghhh

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.

No its actually the old timers on nice 4 day weeks or 9 day fortnights. Desperate to come in early and work their days off.
