CONGRATULATIONS

Post by tommymac »

I think we should all give congratulations and take our hats off to Postman. He started this site back in August last year and this week membership has hit the 500 mark. The site gives every postal worker in the country the platform to share news and views. I know the thread about the ongoing dispute in our office has had over 5000 hits and the lads have gained great strength from the knowledge that others are interested in our situation.PLEASE TELL AS MANY AS YOU CAN ABOUT THE SITE. MORE MEMBERS MEANS MORE VIEWS AND SHARED IDEAS AND ADVICE.
ONCE AGAIN. THANKS POSTMAN YOU ARE A STAR.

I'd echo every word of that. (See also my post in the 'strike breakers' thread).

I would say that having a site like this has other benefits, too. When a manager told us at WTLL last week that his feeling was there just isn't the appetite out there for a strike vote, I just sat there with a confident smirk on my face. For once, I didn't just suspect he was giving us bullsh!t. This time, I knew he was :Very Happy

Absolutely!

Very well done Postman.

RM seems to be pouring out their propoganda on a daily basis, and this site provides a vital antidote.

Flyer has been printed off a few weeks ago and put on CWU notice board in my office, not that the lads and lasses take much notice of the CWU boards.

Cheers guys.

And to you especially Tommy and Kawa and all the other herberts in the ST area.
I suggest anyone looking in to check out the 'Burslem guys' thread for inspiration on how the job should be.

I've learnt a hell of a lot from this board and i hope everyone else has as well and if you haven't yet you certainly will.
Spread the word,and thanks to everyone for their contributions. :Applause

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

I've done a private thanks but I would also like to add my public thanks to POSTMAN for this site. I now feel less pressured by the BS coming down from the top and I have learnt a lot. Image

What I enjoy about this board is all the information that you can get. Its really usefull when talking to the Lineo as he says something about what I have heard on this site and his info is out of date and I can tell him so.
