Team - I don't remember any "booing" - but no doubt the atmosphere wasn't good - but as the CWU Rep said to me, "it has been a lot worse in the past" - ouch! - today was my third visit to the Peterborough DO - accepting today might have been an off day - I cannot imagine it is a fun place to work - it shouldn't be that way - but, the team all agree the new electric vans are a good thing.
....I must say - a big thank you to the members of the team - that came up for a chat - and the one's that said it is great to work at Royal Mail in Peterborough.
Time to reflect on what to do - I don't believe we can leave this office - as it is.
A big thank you to the local managers - it was great to chat.
BTW - do you feel that a union - posting that "booing" the CEO of a company - is appropriate behaviour - and aligned with the societal norms in 2022?

Feeling curious- does Simon's newly acquired high horse sport Royal Mail livery?

Actually, don't answer that.

Re: Thompson Storms Out. Allegedly.
As I said previously in this thread I Knew there would be a reaction from him, his narcissistic mind compels him too. Anyone working in that Peterborough office best stay squeaky clean. Definitely make sure you all do your van checks etc going forward because he’s coming for you.crimson king wrote: ↑28 Jul 2022, 18:53.Time to reflect on what to do - I don't believe we can leave this office - as it is

Abandonment of duty.
That's a serious charge.

Sounds like he is trying to trigger some for of unofficial industrial action with a statement like that. It’s like having Donald Trump running the company with all this social media gaslighting, the union are not clean on that matter either. I wish they wouldn’t.

Re: Thompson Storms Out. Allegedly.
Probably not the the best idea to visit a MC while in the middle of a seriously bitter IR dispute. What did he expect? Actually we can all guess accurately enough!!
I suspect PEMC is just one of places he could visit at the moment where his reception will be as chilly as a winter morning in December. Does he really not get it? (why people are so P****d off)

Seems to me that Simon Thompson is trying to cause unofficial industrial action, which will then result in our ballots getting thrown out by the courts?

Either he will try to bring morale into the office
Me thinks that the office won't be left alone......keep yourselves squeaky clean - still waters run deep!
