It’s been a strange week in work. ( Tate, that is ) It’s been a week of not being able to get hold of anyone in the management team…. of seeing an extraordinary email from a union rep… and finally – yesterday, a hint of what was to come.
No official word yet – only a quick correspondence from someone who attended the union meeting last night : ‘Everyone will receive letters shortly, announcing that there will be working groups to look at flexible working hours and staffing levels’.
Mixed reactions from the staff… some are mortified at the prospect of either losing their jobs or having hours cut considerably, some seemed relieved…almost as if it’s a chance to move away and start somewhere afresh. We would after all, probably be financially better off working at Tesco.
