Union Strikes

[smurfL6]

Ok your right it is political, but i'm not. I'm just trying to defend something I've paid into and now I'm being told the contracts changed.

If you want to give me grief about that carry on.

Thought I might get some interesting conversation about the strikes thats why I started the thread.......................

Full fat of course!

I'll grab a beer when I'm there.

Shit happens, get over it. Get a supplimentary private pension if you think you'll go short when you retire.

Working for us, doesn't make you special.

I've got a beer... sort of. It's a bottle of Stella. I've got some Winter Ale and some Stout in the garage, but it's raining.

Salted popcorn is shit. Mind you, so is sugary stuff. It's just polystyrene packing beads. Wish I had some stinky blue cheese...

Get back to work and stop expecting us in the private sector to fund your pension!

Sod it, I'm off to get a Stout!

Starting to realise that No thanks dont like popcorn

I nearly killed alot of people today because of all the people who didn't sort out child care, just took them down Asda.

When my mother had children she took cleaning jobs when my father was home, so child care wasn't an issue, yeah there wasn't money, and the treat on Friday was a Mars or Crunchie, but I had parents (well until my father got caught with his dip stick in another engine).

Feel free to strike, Pensions are one long rip off. You pay tax on pension payments, and then they tax your pension.

Remeber all those people who were told to invest in stocks for thier retirment. I know one person who lost millions, doing what the governmetn told him.

Personally I won't be striking, one there is no union which is recognised by my employers, two I will never get to retire as there will be no pension when I get to pensionable age.

[Vultch]

Popcorn, anyone?

I'll have a bucket

[shokenore]

I have been on the Talisker now without coke no popcorn. I am just amazed that people with a salary of feck all can work for a couple of years and then end up with a pension worth 1/2 million.


Political statements and didn't want a reply HELLOO

[Wolfracer]

You won't on here.

Nope you're right, I just deleted my viewpoint. I feel it's safer left inside

Want some popcorn

Thanks, but I'm holding out for the Minstrels after the interlude.

[Apache]

God, my tongue just went into spasms due to the sheer volume of flavour in my (home brewed) stout compared to that fizzy stella ####.

Perhaps needs a bit longer - only been in the keg 2 months, but its looking great for Christmas!

What you have already paid into isn't changing. What you pay in the future is, and what you get for that is. That's just like the real world. If you don't like it all you have to do is find a huge pile of money to prop up the current situation. Any ideas? if not, you should really stop complaining.

Its a shame when people ignorantly believe the Con Dem spin because it divides the Public and Private Sector workers.

How the hell did you work out that the Private sector is paying our pensions. I pay into it myself thanks. Its only worth 4k per year, Try asking the MP's who are public servants why they are getting a pension of 77k per year!

You do know who funds your employer, right?

BTW you said this wasn't about politics...
