| Mad Friday is split this year. Normally the last Friday before Crimbo, but with Christmas eve being next Friday a lot of people will finish today, but loads will finish next Friday too.
Can see Thursday next week being ”mad”

Tell me about it.
My mate who works at Royal Mail has just got a nice £150 Xmas bonus.
I could only dream of the NHS doing the same, in fact there looking right this minute for us all to lose 10% over the next two years to save £50 million pound.

Is that right? Are the Agenda for Change pay scale bands all being reduced by 10%? I must have missed that being announced.

Have you noticed now how any banker you meet (when they venture out) always says something like "OK, I'm a banker. I admit it. But I'm an ordinary retail banker looking after customer accounts at branch level, not one of these investment bankers in London..."?*
Sort of like Clinton's "I smoked it yes but did not inhale..."?
Have you ever read the "Alex" cartoon strip? Sums up perfectly what a load of scumbags investment bankers generally are, IMO.
[size=50* In fairness, they likely are, and are as sickened as the rest of us and fed up of being tarred with the same brush. [/size

Not every band is having a 10% reduction (well it still has to be put to a ballot - I've voted no) although then jobs become under threat.
You're band 8's and 9's and A,B,C,D,E etc are protected but then that's what I would expect for them to look after their own while frontline services are cut here, there and everywhere.

My missus is a Band 6, and she's never heard of this proposed reduction - that's why I'm puzzled! Is this something local? Mind you, her frontline department is already more than 25% below establishment and they are keeping it that way (that's why she's having to work 11+ hour days...) so maybe that is the alternative strategy?
