Re: Christmas Pressure
The cwu aren't fit for purpose anymore. don't know why people still pay into it. the reps don't want to rock the boat as it might affect their cushy wee numbers.

Re: Christmas Pressure
The reps don’t get paid.

Re: Christmas Pressure
How do they have a cushy number when they aren’t getting paid for having everyone moan at them and about them?

Re: Christmas Pressure
Was my response too complicated? What’s cushy about a position where everyone moans and criticises you and yet you are not paid any extra? I can’t see where the cushy bit is.Sean06 wrote: ↑13 Jul 2024, 20:18This whole site is full of people moaning about reps getting cushy numbers.because they are not getting paid people are still entitled to moan.again were does it say they are getting paid please answer instead of twisting the question round.

Re: Christmas Pressure
All union reps are legally entitled to paid “release/facilities time” each week to undertake union work. Some poor sod has to cover their duty (or part thereof) when the union rep is engaged on union business! In my book the reps are paid.

Re: Christmas Pressure
Sounds like the poster above is saying "cushy" in terms of doing union work instead of RM work.
They might think RM work is harder.
Personally I wouldn't be a rep as too much crap gets levelled at them.
Some of it justified, some not in my experience.
