Challenged later about the absurdity of what he was doing, he replied that 'one or two people coming in isn't gonna make a difference'

I kid you not.

Your support for the national strike action thus far has been first class. You will aware that from this week the action has been escalated by CWU HQ and a 2 week rolling program of industrial action has been announced.
We know that you will fully support YOUR union but we want to make sure that we justify the pay that we all lose. There is no point us withdrawing our labour one day if we all cut corners to make up the backlog the next.
In most offices we are doing ourselves out of jobs. Royal Mail is proposing more cuts in every office for the next five years. They say there is slack in every unit nationwide.
It is now time to prove them wrong. Dozens of offices nationwide have woken up and started to do the job properly. There is nothing wrong with doing what is listed below. It is all covered by national agreements and there should be no comeback from management. If any manager tries to apply pressure contact your CWU representative immediately!
STOP USING YOUR OWN CARS
• You are not insured
• You are NOT PAID to use YOUR cars
• You are taking time off your duty by using your car. Royal Mail will come for this time if they already haven’t
STOP COMING IN EARLY
• Royal Mail is not grateful for you starting early. They just see this as a further opportunity to cut jobs. If you come in an hour early for work then they will simply put an extra hours worth of walking on your duty!
STOP WORKING YOUR MEAL RELIEFS
• Once again Royal Mail is not grateful that you are giving them this time. They see it as another 40 minutes work they can lump on you!
START TO WEIGH YOUR BAGS
• National agreements entitle you to weigh every bag you take out. You are outing your health and safety at risk as well as cutting corners!
HELP YOUR UNION TO SAVE YOUR JOB

they pulled this one on me once . . . . I asked what I should be doing next, then went and did it, went back and asked what to do next, went and did it, this went on all morning with me asking "what should I do now" every 15 mins or so . . . . after a couple of hours the screw said " ok just follow your bloody 318 then " . . . . . . . . . . . . ok I know it's childish but sometimes that's the only way to deal with the screws.kinmad4it wrote:Aren't 318's essentially defunct now though? After we (we? what fekkin we?) voted in The Way Backwards all 318's have that little small print at the bottom saying "or as directed by the dick in the suit" Meaning in essence we don't actually have an official duty.
