As you are going to be starting later very soon can you not move the window to just AFTER the Mrs goes out to work #justtryingtohelp

If Royal Mail enforce any change without union negotiation i'd expect the union to announce an all out strike.

I think Thompson has pushed the envelope big time today.
It's a statement of intent, a deliberate escalation of the stakes, a threat to everyone. He knows that the Union must react with a strong response, and is prepared to gamble everything on whatever transpires over the next month or two.

If the CWU calls for bulk strike days, can the membership sustain their substantial wage losses for long?
If a significant amount of staff couldn't, and returned to work, that would signal the end for us.

Thompson needs this to come to a head within two months because Christmas is all that he has got.

If we stay strong until Christmas Thompson will be history.

Your right if Thompson refuses to engage with CWU repicks will be a thing of the past and bosses favourites will get all the good duties and hours,seniority will mean nothing and once your over 50 and start to slow you will be attacked in every direction until your beaten to leave.

"Will there be a repick?"

Probably the most asked question of all time over the last 30 years.

Every time someone with seniority leaves and that job becomes vacant, staff are either shi**ing it cos they think their round is in jeopardy, and the other half are hopeful to get bumped up off their bad rounds.

Hardly ever happens, usually a few get unofficially shuffled around and the paranoia dies off for a bit lol

Yes, I was told before I left that "duty holders" will become a thing of the past, it will be a day's work for a day's pay, as RM own ALL the duties and will decide who performs THEIR duties (much like other employers), it will be the best person for the job.

Yes. The manager will pick who does what and his mates will be the winners.
