Payrise

[2yearpostie]

Honestly dont give the company chance to attack terms, how about we have no payrise this year and just hold postion as we are?

Why not just make it 3-4 years?

Whats better?

Option A ,Stay as we are

Option B At best 2-3% rise + being forced to worked at least 2 Sundays a month and having our times changed to 11am- 6pm,+ loosing sick pay.


Which would you choose cause this is all the union will get for us

You are willing to take a 7% pay cut with no improvement in your working conditions?

RM must love people like you.

Im willing to continue exactly as we are re hourly pay rate and terms in return for being left alone to get on with it.

I bet you are one of these people coming in 30min early to work for free so you don't have confront the manager about potential cut off. Typical yes man.

lot to be said for having a peaceful life and making the best of what you have rather than always wanting more.

The 9-5 shite mentioned earlier…..

Has anyone other than that one poster put that forward?
Has the business ever officially said that it wants to move delivery to 9-5?

If you were a union rep and you thought your little corner which has remained protected for many years despite having some of the poorest performing offices was under attack wouldn't you try to stoke a little fire under the rest of the membership just in case you need back up?

Now what's guaranteed to unite the membership? I know let's roll out the old 9-5 routine again for the umpteenth time...

When the business officially proposes moving to 9-5 I'll worry about it, when I see it in writing I'll worry about it.

Not when somebody with a history of putting his members above the rest of the membership throws up another slice of project fear pie.

Genuine question. Are you still being paid for being a workplace coach?

[Chelseablue]

Workplace coach money what a waste of money that is. How much is that costing this struggling company ??????

[Woody Guthrie]

Why are we even discussing an attack on our terms and conditions?

Terry made it clear it's a no strings pay rise.
He also said on time but that ship has sailed.

There is no deal to be made.
It's a pay rise or we walk.

I agree. Should be axed straight away. An absolute pointless perk for the few

It will absoultly have strings and no one will walk as no one can afford to not get paid while they re striking, talk some sense.

Bigger parcels? Royal Mail have dropped the price (april 4th) of some heavier parcels by around £20. Prices have become alot more competitive now and we should start to get more heavier parcels soon. Looking forward to squeezing it into that rust bucket of a van

I've been doing a collection this week and have noticed an increase in large heavy special deliveries, according to a member of staff in one of the post offices this is due to the price changes making special delivery more competitive.

Special Deliveries became cheaper than ParcelForce for certain weights. The post Office also get a higher commission for Specials. Combine these two factors and I can see those heavy Parcel Force parcels will go through Royal Mail. Cheaper for the customer & more commission for the post office

If someone thinks they can do a better job of something than me then im quite happy to let them try and guide if needed. Do the same with my walk. if someone wants it happy for them to try it for a week, Always get it given back to me however.

If it does Terry has to fall on his sword.

If you can call on that dumb blonde useless fuckwit to go for misleading parliament Terry has to go for misleading the membership.

There must be some trade union values left in Wimbledon surely?

Totally Agree WG!

I hate this "Pay Deal" BS. It should be a simple "Pay Rise". None of this "Any extra payments will have to be self funding" crap.

As to Industrial Action ..... it's the old story of if you're not willing to stand up for yourselves who do you expect to do it for you?

You want to delay those things that may/may not happen for one year - what then? Are you happy with your take home pay currently?
