After watching sky news i can't wait to go into work & smile at those slimey barstewards that call themselves managers now the top brass have shown their true colours to them as well, :dance :Very Happy

If they think for 1 minute that they'll get an ounce of sympathy from us their very much mistaken. :mad .. These twwats have been the organ grinders lackys & now the organ grinder is turning on his lackys, feckin fantastic :nana :nana ...

The royal fail are so out of touch in their marble palaces that they'll soon have 2 unions to fight against, you could'nt make this s**t up, how blinkered & victorian thinking are these people, & they say 'WE must modernise" !!! :Very Happy :Very Happy ..

We all know they won't grow a backbone & strike over it, but it's pleasing to know their getting the shitty end of the stick sometimes too.. :Very Happy

Sorry to gloat :chuckle i just can't help myself over this..

:Very Happy yep, they'll be brought in to work alongside the strike breakers ( sorry strike breaking lowlife ) :evil/mad ...
I'll see for myself tomorrow just how 'rammed' the apc is for myself, might even take a few piccys :wink: ..

Don't know if we'll just be doing 'inward' like the last 1st day back after a strike, but i'll post up what my shift was like anyway.Higsons letter to the managers was pure gold as they will be even more hacked off now & we can give them that knowing smile that although we've lost a days pay they are'nt getting it all their own way either & they'll be next when they've outlived their usefulness :funneh .. :mfo :chuckle
