Can someone explain how those on delivery and early shifts having to lose yet again two days pay in one week 30th October and 1st September. ( Which I cannot afford) while lates and nights only losing 9ne days pay. Would it be better if it was Saturday/ Monday. Soften the pay packet a bit.
I can see this dispute going on for a long time

Re: Strike Dates
Perhaps the Saturday strike day is to favour those in processing that would have lost every single day of the strikes because they don't have days off during the week. A lot in delivery should have benefited from at least one day off... Me thinks?

Be interesting to hear from the horses mouth. Like to hear from the main union bosses in how they come to these decisions.

Re: Strike Dates
Simon Thompson must be loving reading these comments with people whining about losing money, cancelling strikes etc. We are all in it together, some people may have fallen lucky with days off but it will even out over time. We all need to remember what we are fighting for here and it will be much much worse than losing a days pay if Royal Mail get their way. Think about the long term.

Re: Strike Dates
The 1st October date has likely been chosen as there is going to be national protests relating to cost of living.

Re: Strike Dates
When strike days are announced, expect to lose money on all of those days.
If you don't then you're a bit lucky, if you do, then it is what it is, a dispute with strike days.

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.

Don't care how much I lose now, it's all about building a better future.
