O RLY? OK.

The union here is pretty toothless. They struck a couple of times last year, pension contributions still went up.
None of us do a job important enough that anyone cares whether we're here or not for the odd day here and there.

:shrug:

[Xhaka Can’t]

I'm on strike today myself. I am not particularly impressed by PCS strategy. Action should really be focussed on areas where there is an impact. I'd be happy to pay into a levy to fund that rather than continue with one day strikes here and there.

A lot of people aren't in the union because it really is led by a bunch of Trotskyites who seem to revel in days like this. I do however think this is something worth striking over. The Government are robbing us of an affordable pension scheme that was renegotiated only 5ish years ago. But it isn't just this Government. The previous Government virtually destroyed private sector pension schemes through the taxation system 12 years ago.

[Letters]

My line manager (member of the union) usually strikes. He's got a cold and worked at home yesterday. He just emailed us all to say he'd be working at home today too. I replied saying shouldn't he be striking from home and he said he forgot it was a strike today and he has too much to do today to go on strike.

:lol:

It's a real head-scratcher that the strikes aren't having much effect.

:lol:

It's a real head-scratcher that the strikes aren't having much effect.

It is the same with my boss - there is an important Audit Committee meeting today - normally I would attend, but I just supplied all the information that was required for it and he'll be delivering what I would have. The net effect is zero. It is why these things need to be targeted. When I worked in a Job Centre, me striking caused problems and a service couldn't be delivered. Now when I strike, I still have to get the same things done and will eventually make up for lost time.

I'm out because I oppose the pension changes (robbery would be more accurate) and I don't feel right working on a day when others are losing out.

Europa League - Bilbao fans fly to wrong country


Some 400 Athletic Bilbao fans missed out on seeing their team in last week's Europa League final after accidentally flying to the wrong country.The fans of the Basque team had clubbed together to charter a jet specially for the match to ensure that they could not be undone by airline schedules, industrial action or any other unforeseen cancellation.

There was only one tiny flaw in their plan: instead of chartered a flight to the Romanian capital of Bucharest, they chartered one to Budapest, in neighbouring Hungary.

They only discovered their mistake when they landed in the wrong country, but the plucky fans immediately set about trying to make the 400-mile dash to the Arena Nationala in Bucharest by car, train or bus... though on realising that their return flight was booked for just a few hours after the final whistle, they reluctantly had to accept that they would have to watch on TV.

Still, maybe they were better off not making it after all: Bilbao were well-beaten 3-0 by Atletico Madrid on the night.

And they can further console themselves with the knowledge that their mistake is a common one: even the official UEFA stadium announcer at the match opened proceedings by booming out a cheery "Good evening, Budapest!" over the PA system before the match kicked off.

An A333, A300 or B767 with all economy config can easily fit 400 people on board. It's very possible with charter plane. :coffee:

Mug and Arsenal go hand in hand my friend :lol:

I seem to get two every year. There's always someone who thinks I want an Arsenal mug. And I always get the calendar and desk calendar too....which is really annoying to stare at on a Monday morning when we've been turned over by some newly promoted pub team :(

There is no going back now then, 5 weeks is very impressive.

I would love to tell you it gets easier but it doesn't, not for 18months or so and then smokers will disgust you.

I still miss it every day and its been nearly 2 years

Ah well.

I know what you mean....but, I'm already feeling the benefit of it, I guess. And, yes, I'll always miss it I think.

But I have the psychological side of things sorted, and that's something I've never come to terms with. Actually accepting that I'll never smoke again is the catch I think, and I seem to be dealing with it.

But it's like you say with your kids. And hopefully when I have some littl'uns. You want to be there for them, and with them as long as possible. And when I see my uncle in hospital riddled with terminal cancer, it does make you think.

Onwards and upwards....am buying my season ticket next year with the money I saved.....though they will probably drive me to smoking again by the time the seasons out :lol:
