Hello and Welcome to rmc Craig67 :wave
Don't think they need any excuse to close offices and cut jobs.
Thats what they were planning to do before the strikes.
That's what the Industrial Action was about.
Hope you like the site - plenty of news and views from postal workers
around the country.
Please spread the word among your mates.

Hello Seniorman, I'll certainly spread the word about the site. What do you think about the big bonus for Mr Crozier?? And they say they have no money. Wonder what Mr Leighton's bonus was? The fact that they haven't yet published the end of year accounts does make me wonder, but then the fat cat bonuses will have to be shown in those accounts. Lets wait and see what they tell us!!!!!

Think they're cooking the books (Sorry - creatively accounting) right now.

Yes I agree there. Mr C's bonus was £370,000 :cfo and Mr L's, well I dont know, but more than C's I guess :lfo . The money that they have from the goverment, well they haven't even touched that yet, despite saying we need to modernise quickly. Some £19,000,000 has been spent on stupid plasma screens for every delivery office, despite the two honourable gentlemen telling us earlier this year, that there was no money for uniforms nor identity badges for all staff. Where are their priorities. The men are mad.

Let's hope the men in the white coats (or grey suits) come for them soon.

They will try that I have no doubt but at the moment the union is in a stronger position than Royal Mail and both sides know it so I think they will tread carefully for the time being. Hello and welcome craig67

My sentiments exactly mate. I've been telling my colleagues that for months. With strikes they have to give 7 days notice. With work to rule, it's tough, you are only obliged to work your hours (take your breaks), mail delivered or not. Does anyone know anything about the procedure about refusing to drive vans, as I'm sick and tired of driving skips on wheels??
