I understood there was a ceasefire in place about public service bashing.
We are all sick and tired of it.
I note that a famous one called Rabbit got itself banned for breaking the ceasefire.
Speaking of bashing - all of these are fact, and have happened in the last 18 months, I will leave posters to decide where in the economy they occured:
1) Employee reported by union for changing a light bulb (I'm not joking)
2) Office consolidation -employees insist that bus provided to collect them from old workplace to bring them to their new workplace 15 mins away - they won
3) Union cause dispute over 'having' to use new technology - which was faster, more comfortable and easier to operate than the old engine
4) Employees put on a reduced working week
5) Employees pay cut by 15%
6) Employees entitled to uncertified absence
7) Employees entitled to a 'job for' life regardless of requirement for skills,experience
8) Employees made compulsory redundant
9) 5000 people redundant per week
10) Employees recieve preferential treatment from lending institutions
11) Employees refused credit because job security an issue
12) Government decide that economy will be saved by taxing way out of crisis
I would love to bash the government (can't wait until the next general election) - in the meantime, who is kidding who, we all know that there is one section of society getting a very painful and very real bashing .........
