So, who's striking today? Which Side are You On

I see the Bus Eireann strike has been postponed. There’s new talks due now and the NBRU won’t talk unless the NTA and the DoT attend.
Mr o Leary 2.
Shame the snot Ross 0.

Every bus driver in Ireland should be rounded up and shot.

Ross will need a translator to help him understand O’Leary.

Mr o Leary will get his demands across alright, no need to worry.

Ah he’s impressive alright.

You sicken my shit.

All out strike at Bus Eireann from midnight tonight.

Any idea if that includes trains or just buses?

It’s going to be a dirty one too. The public have alternatives to Bus Eireann but how long will the other unions leave their colleagues on the picket lines ?
The bottom line is if BE get away with driving down the wages of semi state/ owned the precedent is set for others to follow suit. No possible way for the union to let it happen.

What harm, it’s only piss drenched senior citizens and junkies that use these services anyway.

Let the company go to the wall and see how chirpy they’ll be.

I’d imagine train stations where they share a depot with bus drivers will be affected.

Shit,getting the train up for the match tomorrow.

:fearful:

Let the government pay for and subsidise a proper public service. The drivers are right and correct not to lie down and be stamped on by a government determined to make the staff pay for a service we already pay for via income tax.
Did you always tend to allow yourself to be walked on or is it something new ?

Even if it goes the fucking thing will be wedged now, they better have the names up.

Oh no I declined that…

Haha. Mr o Leary knows dam well that he’ll win this one. Give it a few days and BE will be ordered back to the WRC and watch Ray Hernan being consigned to the rubbish pile like the other CEOs that took on the semis and lost.

Bus Eireann’s accounts clearly show the issue, staff costs are far too high.

Staff drive buses. … you need to pay staff.
Do you want them to work for nothing ?
