I am getting quite cheesed off with you calling me a union basher, where is your evidence of this? All I have done is quote stuff that is in the public domain. YOU are the individual who came on here and told the world about all the stuff VM have done wrong regarding Albert Dock. All I said was that you were seeing only one side of the argument and that was what the union were telling you.

On the collective bargaining its quite clear the union did not expect to lose but they did, and have now resorted to headline grabbing tactics to scare the the VM employees.

They also told you that they had a cast iron case about VM, however no one is sure what happened, however it's easy to guess because if they had won, there propaganda machine would be in full flow and they would have been shouting from the roof tops.

I have my own business with employees although its in the building trade, like I said, you know nothing about me, I do care about employees.

So, stop the personal attacks please!

That is unjust, as I said in a previous post some of my family lost their jobs as miners and they were in the union.

You need to get help with that attitude you have

Re: You can't get me I'm part of the Union........

Is there anybody here still discussing the topic? If all you wish to do is sling mud we'll just close the thread.

Respect each other's different viewpoints, but any more petty insults will see intervention.

Clue is in the title.

Originally the core network and predominately the transmode kit at the time, however now they work on the access network and vice versa so the term is redundant. They are now just engineers along with all the other network engineers.
