Letter from simple Simon

Post by Postmangit »

I found that letter rather threatening to be honest. When he says thousands of jobs could be going if the strikes carry on, then that will cost them making them all redundant???

Dream on, I hope you are a patient person as you will be having a long, long, long wait. If they can't give you more than 2% without a fight they ain't going to shell out millions on redundancies - for pity's sake get real.

I’m just saying, he’s threatening thousands of jobs would go if the strikes carry on, it’s just nonsense as how could they afford that? 🤷‍♂️

If they start offering redundancy they'd need crowd control for the queues.
