Extracts:

The Rail Maritime and Transport Union (RMT) said station staff voted
seven-to-one in favour of a deal which would lead to a 35-hour week.

A London Underground spokesman said:

"The agreement is exactly the same as it was before the attempted RMT strike
action. The new staff rosters will be implemented across all LU stations on
5 February, as planned.

No doubt someone will be along soon to explain what the RMT have actually
achieved.

Progression towards their eventual and well-deserved demise.

Hopefully.

It's in the dreams of many hard-working, fare-paying, LU and railway
passengers.

And, no doubt, also in the dreams of many railwaymen and women who are
displeased at being painted with the same brush as their RMT-indoctronated
colleagues.

Indoctrinated !!!

With what?

A safe working enviroment
A fair Salary
A secure pension
Legal representation including family
Representation at disciplinary hearings
The promotion of equal rights in the work place
Access to education via the Union Learning Fund

Just for the record im not a member of the RMT but ASLEF. There are 18500
members of ASLEF and we intend to stick up for ouselves and protect our pay,
our pensions and our conditions. Were not going to go away or give up and i
doubt very much if the RMT will either.

Sorry to disappoint.

By ****ing off the people you're supposed to be serving...? Good to
see the spirit of customer service is alive and well, isn't it?

Fought for and won by the actions of strong trade unions.
And why shouldnt they earn that kind of money? My only regret is that not
every one is on that figure, still plenty of work for us trade unionists to
do there i think.

If customer service means me earning less, working longer hours in a more
dangerous enviroment, haveing my pension turned into some mickey mouse
money purchase scheme and being sacked on the whim of a manager in a bad
mood you are going to be ****ed of for a long time.

I don't say they shouldn't; I'm saying you shouldn't claim it's not a
fair salary.

I know that, as long as tht **** Crow is in charge.

Being in a customer service industry means that if you have to take
industrial action, you do it in a way that doesn't decrease service to
your customers. Unless you're suggesting that it's your customers who
are the problem.
