Apparently the majority of people happy with 5.5%

[Clappedoutpostie]

7-8% no strings and then time off the week for “change”. No the change they want but change they sit down and work out with the cwu.

[Wolf91]

Probably all from Simon Thompson’s IP address.
Morons are no doubt amongst though us, in every office.

(2yearpostie, I’m looking at you).

Is this one of 2yearposties aliases

Are you taking the piss?

Simon has all ready seen it and people are asking him if he's seen it as though that there poll reflects what the majority of the workforce want.

[twoloops]

Can we have a poll on here?

[POSTMAN]

Everyone knows that RMC's polls are the industry standard-workplace poll-pfft

[derricksmyth]

This a poll on Workplace. People voting saying they’d be happy with a no strings 5.5% pay deal. CWU fighting for an inflation based pay rise. This is what we are up against.

Imagine Dave and Terry battling it out in the board room for a decent inflation based pay deal and Simon pulls this s**t out and says well, these morons happy with 5.5% so f**k your inflation based pay deal.

Is this another Team Si , propaganda stunt? I wish these Tories could tell the truth for once in their mortal lives!!!

7%, now.


Later starts.
Very minor sick policy changes.
Legacy allowances gone.
4 Sundays a year.

I'd take that.

Annualised hours must go, or we will end Royal Mail.

Problem is four Sundays a year it won’t stay for long, as the demand increases for Sunday deliveries they’ll just want more and more…

Have a word with yourself

[LaggyBand]

Also if we concede Sundays at all it needs to be voluntary only and there will be plenty because RM will be paying fat wages on those days.

Nah, he and they will settle for a 5.5 % pay cut cos we are overpaid and we should be grateful for our jobs

According to our area rep there's not enough volunteers for Sundays now!

Good luck getting a contract that explicitly states 4 Sundays a year only.

Whatever (finally) gets agreed in this current dispute will probably only last for ONE year!

Obviously not all, but some of the changes that Super Si and his "Upper Team" currently want will be agreed by the CWU to settle the current dispute, in return for more pay. That is why they're called "negotiations" - give and take on both sides.

But, when it comes to 2023's pay claim, all of what DIDN'T get implemented in 2022 will be back on the table, and a little more will be conceded in return for a little more pay, and so it goes on.

You have only got to look at what has been given up in past years in return for a pay increase and slighter shorter working week - D2D payments/Night Duty Allowance/Saturday Premiums/Van Driving Allowance/job and finish/PHG and extra allowance/Training Allowance/Later starts/Later Saturdays/Bigger and longer walks,...

Just saying it how it is, with this company you can, and never will, see a light at the end of the tunnel.

[TrueBlueTerrier]

Genuine question, what is 'workplace' ?

Royal Mail version of Pravda and "Russia Today"
