Billstruth you say;
I thought you were on a WTR?
Why then would you be covering absent staff?
I would say a lot of public sector workers are not following a strict WTR. I know we are not in our place.

Well you see the work that I do comes from a general 'pool' of work that the collective of clerical officers work from. The work still has to be done regardless of the amount of staff that we have.Billstruth you say;

In other words, the work to rule doesn't apply when its for your colleagues getting a day off?
You really do have a bee in your bonnet don't you?Deiseblue;
I cant imagine going into superquinn when most of the staff are on leave,nor would I imagine that they would allow this to happen,especialy if they were way behind on their orders.
According to Bill struth they all get this time off. How can a department manage if they all get this day off? do they close the office?
Another poster said its just the union reps who get the day off?
What about the privilege day.............
Will they close Tuesday or Thursday?
Or skeleton crew on both days?

They get a days leave to attend the conference, but overtime? Come on, stick to the facts.
Regarding the rate of pay of low paid clerical officers;
Say If I work in a jam factory at 18 years of age and I put the jars in a box and put sellotape on the box and for this I get 25k a year,lots of days leave, a union that is militant, a pension to die for and I cant be sacked,
Then 18 years later at the age of 36 Im on the factory floor still putting jars in a box and putting sellotape on the box as I have been for the last 18 years,why oh why would I expect to get any more that the original 25k ,(taking into account that 25k may be 36k ,18 years later.)
Also why should I get promoted ,ahead of someone who comes into the job and does a great job and moves onto putting the jam in the jars ,while I insist Im there the longest and I should get a promotion.
