Please excuse me if I am being extremely naive but as a civi with no real involvement I just can't get my head round this. Especially after a nice bottle of Merlot <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" /> . .. .A) I understood that NATS employee's were entitled to 5% of the total share capital upon privitisation - surely (shurly <G>
that would have been issued upon completion of the transfer of ownership? If so where is the remainder of the share capital coming from?. .. .B) If this offer was part of the share 'offer' that was initially offered then NATs have no choice but to make good the offer - I can't believe that your contracts with NATs allow for the company to suddenly decide to delay your share capital (options?) for 6 months - If it does allow the company to treat you this way then I would be questioning (again?) the abilitly of your union.... .. .You guys are amongst the most qualified and well trained safety specialists in the world and from what I have read here and heard from industry colleagues/friends you have been treated like poo over the past few years, maybe you should be questioning whether you are getting your value for money from your annual sub?. .. .All the best,. .. .Dan
