A fair Salary

...even though they earn £30k...

Fought for and won by the actions of strong trade unions.
And why shouldnt they earn that kind of money? My only regret is that not
every one is on that figure, still plenty of work for us trade unionists
to
do there i think.

Go see how much money nurses make, then tell me that's a fair wage. Jesus
Christ, man - just because you can get paid that much does not make it
right. I've seen inept people get really high salaries - that does not
automatically entitle everyone to such a wage.

Just for the record im not a member of the RMT but ASLEF. There are 18500
members of ASLEF and we intend to stick up for ouselves and protect our
pay,
our pensions and our conditions.

By ****ing off the people you're supposed to be serving...? Good to
see the spirit of customer service is alive and well, isn't it?

If customer service means me earning less, working longer hours in a more
dangerous enviroment, haveing my pension turned into some mickey mouse
money purchase scheme and being sacked on the whim of a manager in a bad
mood you are going to be ****ed of for a long time.

Let me speak for every single traveller on London Underground, if I may -
**** YOU.

YOU chose to work on the underground - we don't choose to travel on it. For
most (if not all), it's the only way we can get around London. If you don't
like having to actually work for your money, go find another job where you
can eat biscuits, drink tea, and moan about the public. You are supposed to
be providing a PUBLIC service. You can't just turn around and go "oh -
don't worry lovely public - we're just using you as a pawn in our sick,
selfish game. We want more money to do less, and we'll claim it's down to
safety, but really we just want a day off"
