Hearts and Minds

It would seem that the employer, insists on making this round of negotiation's about money. It is very ironic and a little coincidental that this whole thing wasn't brought to our attention a little sooner. They have been planning the responses to use since the negotiating team was elected and possibly before.

All of you must understand, with all the turmoil that is going on, every step that our employer takes is calculated and considered carefully. The decision making process that they follow goes all the way to the top. The battle here is for our hearts and minds, and they want to make it very clear who holds the purse strings to your financial well being.

Another thing to keep in mind is that the enemy, AFI International my already be on sight, and Monarch security services already does our mystery shops. In preparation for a labour dispute it would be very naive of us to think that they are not already preparing for such an eventuality as well. So watch what you say and to who you speak to, because it may not be a mystery shop.

We are all intelligent adults and and I think that all of us can see through this little smoke screen that they have thrown up. As I have said in earlier posts the escalation will be gradual and deliberately measured.
