In good times maybe you might have had some public support but come on do you really expect to get it when so many are losing their jobs and countless others are having to work reduced hours and take pay cuts. Why is it postal workers seem to think different rules should apply to them then apply to the rest of the working population. Many work longer hours for less pay in worse conditions and even if they had a union wouldn't strike because right now they know people without jobs and appreciate their own no matter how crappy it is.

Another reason why public support is not as forthcoming as it once was is because as i mentioned earlier you can sit down on january 1st and take a good guess when you will hear about strikes because it is the same damn time every year. That time is of course when you will royally screw the majority of the general public and cause them maximum disruption and inconvinience. Right now instead of trying to get everything you want how about just shutting up and getting on with it realising that times are bad for everyone and no one has the perfect job.

If you can't and things are so bad for you then take voluntary redundancy and come join all of us on benefit who supposedly are living life to the max taking the mick out of the state. Sorry i have no sympathy right now with postal workers because all my sympathy is going to the many people i know who despite being as flexible as they could possibly be some of them having worked more then a couple of months for no money trying to keep their firms going have NO JOB.
