Re: [Update] The Royal Mail strike thread

Er i have no sympathy for them this time for all the reasons i have previously stated and the fact that my local service is a complete joke and that isn't down to the management it is down to the workers being more iterested in meeting up for coffee at starbucks then doing what they are paid too. While many of us wait for our mail to be delivered same group of ten postal workers sit in starbucks drinking coffee for over an hour and a half with their bags right next to their feet filled with peoples mail and it is a common joke in our town.

Most of the people i know that are lucky enough to still have a job right now have had to accept new employment contracts\conditions but they don't spit their dummy out and threaten to strike and neither do a lot more people in this country doing harder jobs in worse condidtion they just get on with it. If being a postal worker was one of the worst jobs in the country maybe then i would have some sympathy but it isn't.

Having just watched the news conference the cwu gave clearly everyone is to blame and they the least hell even david cameron has been dragged into this and what the hell he is supposed to do about anything right now i don't know. Also most of the postal workers i come into contact with certainly do not give me the impression of "caring for the business or the public". Like i said if RM workers are that unhappy leave the job and let others have them and if it is as bad as they state and so intolerable then we will know soon enough.
