Now Simon Thompson hints at scrapping the Christmas Bonus

[ninja22]

If there's no Christmas Bonus then I won't be putting myself out to get Christmas delivered. Will do what I can and go home on my time.

well as woody says you only lose some of it if we strike on days through December, so its only a percentage, but doesn't anyone realise he is using scare tactics once again to get people to cross the picket lines. according to him, even reps are crossing pickets cos they have had enough and saw the bigger picture. what was the name of that bloke who was thrown out of hell for telling lies?

For each day counted midnight to midnight excluding bank holidays on which an employee takes unofficial industrial action their supplement will be abted by 10% for officail action it will be abted by 3%

They can shove the Xmas bonus but I know they’ll be idiots in the office
who would want a deal just to get that money
some would dig their grannies up for a fiver

as much as a fiver ?

We will lose more than the little Christmas bonus if we lose this. I really have come to terms that this is the end.

A bonus of £140 after tax is an insult and embarrassing to tell people. I’ve said for years we are so under paid for the work we do. While out on delivery you see other workers who stop for a break, if it’s a cuppa from their flask or a cigarette. Not us we are expected to go continuously for 5 hours in all weathers up and down flights of stairs and hills. If we were to stop for a breather we get questioned the next day. What is all this garbage about we are better paid than our parcel delivery competitors? Yes I agree we are better paid than a very few but the majority earn a lot more than us, or are the people I speak to out on delivery lying? I know people who get 2 grand bonus at Christmas and no, they are not in fantastic jobs. Just in jobs where they are appreciated.

You do realise you get a paid break too you know?

Who cares? Works out at under £2 a week over the year.Il manage without thanks.

Well if we strike over Christmas, Simon will be out delivering all the post so he can have the Christmas bonus too. See how far he can make it stretch.

The Muppets Christmas Chaos

The muppet with no eyes must be the chairman because he doesn’t seem to be able to see the damage Simon Thompson is doing to the company.
