2% lump is payable upon successful revision . Wording was very ambiguous. Some might say we haven't had a 'successful ' revision in years. Sundays would initially be voluntary but if there wasn't enough volunteers it would be enforced. Again , the wording leaves rm with a lot of wiggle room to move the goal posts. And let's just say trust is at an all time low lol
Phunt73 - Don’t be silly now….you never agree with me.
I still think they’ll struggle to strike a deal. I don’t see either side making any concessions…..let’s see what’s said next week.
Me neither but to be honest I don't think rm would need to change that much to have an offer accepted. There were a few murmurs that quite a few people would have accepted the last one . I think as far as pay goes , backdate the 3.5% to April, make the 2% lump sum no strings , and up next year's to 2.5% . Then on change make Sunday working voluntary only and built into new starters contracts so everyone then has a choice to work it if they want. Make final delivery 4pm not 5pm .
I think that would get a vote across the line in my opinion . Don't get me wrong , a lot of people would still be ****ed but it would get the deal done.
For once anger I agree with you. The one positive I took from it was that cwu were happy for the cut off to be the 22nd but rm wanted it to be the 15th before financial results . Which kinda tells me they are wanting it sorted before then. Oh and ST won't be in the room lol
To be totally transparent I don't think that is totally official. It has come about because someone has mad an official looking flyer with that exact wording , photographed it on a frame I'm a delivery office and posted it on workplace. Simon Thomson is loosing his sh7t about it on there wanting to know where who and where it came from . He's calling it propaganda all over the place . The reason he's loosing his sh7t is because like RGpostie says , it contravenes the USO and is illegal. But 100's in the comments are saying that it may be a fake poster but it's what they're being TOLD to do on a daily basis. Which is the whole point of the poster I believe. Just because it's propaganda doesn't mean it isn't true.
Sorry John. You are right of course, but that surely is largely down to the Posties who use this forum to spread their Union propaganda when it is a Share Bulletin Board and not an internal Union Message Board.
Actually HH John has cited anger as the problem with this board along with many others . Problems only occur when he interjects . He's just one of those loners that doesn't play well with others. Hence why he sits in front of his computer all day every day. Posting on a forum about a business he is clueless about.

See clueless . You don't actually know everything. Go and research what you're chatting about before you go spouting your sh7t.
Homework set for 6 am tomorrow.
So first of all you accused him of lying and then you tell him he's not worth what he shouldn't be earning what he doesn't. Who the fuk do you think you are?? You people make me sick. This is what's wrong with the world nowadays , too many idiots that have the ability to spout there nonsense without reprisals . You all should be ashamed of yourselves . Let me ask you this, if a deal was reached tomorrow and the sp went up higher than you averages what would you do ? That's right , you'd sell up and not give a second thought to royal mail. The workers or the company . You're all just angry because your down a few quid and looking for someone to blame for your own stupidity. I hate to quote maximus but make sure your horse has legs before you back it.
Anger. The job losses are a recent development (threat) announced by rm . We were striking long before this about pay and change , try to keep up son , its not that difficult.
Now pipe down a minute , the adults are talking.
Well I wouldn't get angry based on something that didn't impact me - would you?
£120 a week off your weekly gross income wouldn't bother you ? Must be nice , no wonder you have zero empathy for posties if your that wealthy.
