Last week the company I work for decided that out monthly bonus was going to be scrapped. They also decided that we weren't going to be paid overtime although we were expected to do the same amount of work. I organised a work to rule on Monday morning, fifty drivers doing their contracted hours and not a damn thing more. On Tuesday I was informed that I was going to be facing a disciplinary hearing. Today I was told that there wasn't going to be a disciplinary hearing, the overtime has been restored and the bonus will be reinstated as of next month.

Fuck you, capitalist running dogs!

I like this kind of story. I've always pictured you as a rabble rouser, but you're an organizer too. That's good. They have their EYE on you now for sure. Will your co-workers have your back?
 
And your co workers wont even miss you when you're gone...

We're a pretty bolshy bunch as a group. Working class northerners tend to be.

I'd love to see them try and fire me. A. I'm VERY good at my job and they have no cause. B. This isn't the US where employers get to treat people like shit with no comebacks. and C. I could walk into another job tomorrow.
far fucking out!

and I'm serious.
Danke.

That's power

No, it's knowledge and solidarity.

is this why you had the thread about having a shit day a short while ago?

With the bunch of cunts in Westminster atm, it's extremely now.

Fuck them. They are irrelevant. Its the capitalist oligarchs who give each other mutually supporting directorships and approve each others ridiculous bonuses that need put up against the wall.

Them and the senior Civil Servants that approve the overpriced tenders they award to the self same fat cats to ensure they get a few sinecure non-executive directorships just to pad out their non-contributory tax-payer funded pensions.

well done :rose:
 
Good job, pretty soon you'll drive the pig dogs out of business.

Profits were 33.8 million pounds last quarter, bigot. I think they can afford to pay people for actually doing their job. Or is your opinion that corporations should be allowed to insist their employees work for nothing?
 
I believe that you are free to go elsewhere if you are unsatisfied. Companies run by employees are doomed to fail.

So you DO think corporations should be allowed to make their employees work for free.

Ballix. Most businesses are run by the workers. The function of management is solely to reassure the next level up that their ideas are good and will work.

That is, of course, idiotic.


However, somebody's got to be in charge and I promise you that nobody will put up a ha'penny of capital without the prospect of making a return.


Maybe you ought to put some capital on the table.

 
Good for you, mate. Too often the people who do all the damn hard work are the ones who end up shafted...and not in a good way.

Our depot manager is CRAP at his job, hence the threat to have me in on a disciplinary. But the depot exceeds its targets every month thanks to the fact that we work our arses off. As far as corporate are concerned, everything is rosy.
