Re: In a van share with a strike breaker !!
I share a van with a union member who is a breaker!!! However, I would rather work in an office with a friendly atmosphere. Yes, I`m disappointed with breakers, but everyone has their own financial circumstances with young families and other responsibilities. My van partner is back on Tuesday after a 2 week holiday, a Caribbean cruise, no less. He admitted that he likes money and spending it. To each his own.

When I was at Royal mail we used to find the strike breakers started to become managers a few months after the strikes had finishedclashcityrocker wrote: ↑18 Nov 2022, 17:06How is he another manager? (Breaking one of the rules of the site but never mind eh)
Shouldn't anyone be able to go to work without the fear of being bullied?
Isn't that what our trade union believes?

Yeah,a trade unionist voting for a party in the GE that is totally opposed to the trade union movement isn’t weird at all,is it? Give me strength

More like a union member scabbing because he’s petrified of losing some of his creature comforts doesn’t quite sit right with a lot of people?Acca Dacca wrote: ↑20 Nov 2022, 22:35Seems you have more of a problem with a guy going on holiday than a union member breaking a strikeWalkerX wrote: ↑20 Nov 2022, 20:35I share a van with a union member who is a breaker!!!

There’s a lad at ours,part time & 6-day a week docket chaser. He was openly boasting to me the other week about how much cash he was making,hoovering up the ghost OT after strike days.
Now it has all been stopped how’s talking about crossing the picket line
He’s fairly new in the job & this is his first taste of industrial action
All was rosy in the garden when he wasn’t hit financially,but the moment it has started to affect him,his arse has gone & he’s raised the white flag
I’m a bit embarrassed for him really
