Whoa there Uneasy!
For one, I did actually apologise in my post for attacking easyprison as he was the unfortunate focus of my invective. He is merely representative of the many people left in EZY who moan but remain inactive (preciesely the people you bemoan in your earlier post)
The reason I came across strongly was that he seems to blame the intervention (or non-intervention) of Balpa for the current poor state of affairs. To do so is to miss the point entirely.
It is hardly the trade union's fault that we are made to work like this. It was poor representation among the rank and file that led to a poor compromise being accepted; without a union we would not even have had a compromise.
I am sorry that this kind of argument is precisely what EZY wants - a conflict between its staff on the issue of union representation, even while that union is working for all of us, members or not.
So easyprison - I unreservedly apologise for the nature of my comments. I would much rather stand shoulder to shoulder with you, union or not, in our fight for proper treatment, and not antagonise you.
Sorry!
