I went to my first union meeting today. It was to ask for a mandate to 
plan a ballot for industrial action. There is some tomfoolery going on 
with having let too many people leave, needing contractors, company 
not engaging with union in right way, full timers needing to take 2 
weeks unpaid and what not. It was a meeting which reminded me of South 
Park where a crowd just say 'rabble rabble rabble' making noise. The 
issue is a sensible one and the company are not engaging as they 
should. However, stopping the 2 weeks unpaid holiday will not lead to 
not needing contractors. It is about the principle really. I then had 
a company meeting which was trying to show there is lots of 
opportunities and a bright future. Might need to polish the CV...
