Had a quick look at the site. I'm honestly surprised at the amount of campaigning the CWU does on all sorts of issues.

yea always moaning about something.

Businesses everywhere are bricking it. and other carriers like DHL are rubbing their hands with glee.

I am now ****ting it.
I found out just now one of my new purchases (which is already 2 days late) is indeed being delivered by royal mail. Not a happy chappy.

if its registered post or special delivery you'll still get it, the scabs,managers and personnel staff work the shop floor still processing priority items.

i'm waiting for a pc, insurance cheque, 2 sd cards and a netgear router from ebuyer.

Oh the irony Kwak

Sorry, i just cant afford to strike, call me a scab if you like. I really dont care. What i do care about is the loss of £60 a day, on the off-chance the union can squeeze a better result out of RM. For full-timers that's a wage loss total of £540 up to next Tuesday.

The union rep here is up his own ar5e anyway, promises the earth! There are a couple of militant workers who are his best mates - everyone else laughs at their pettyness - and just went on strike for the first few but soon realised theres nothing to be gained.

The job's nearly f***ed anyway, RM are issuing all new starts with 1-hr contracts and then asking them to do a further 20hrs or whatever on OT -at a lesser rate of course! And they're therefore not accrueing holidays, pension etc. What a bloody farce!

your not wrong mate i think the end is near.
