The poor married ones of our armed forces do not have the luxury of volunteering to cover for strikers. Thank you, boys and girls, from a grateful old git!
I'm a shift worker at 56. I am also in a union as well. Need to be in this world with the nasty c*** that seem to be about in charge of everything. Oh, the company was asked if we could vote on our union being recognised and all our department (union and non union) was asked to vote on it and the company would agree if the vote was more that 50% of department staff. It was a very high percentage. Nutty, were you even in the ALAE?
