    Default Wheres the so called unity from the Pubic Service now?

    So its fine for the Pubic Service to avoid cuts so it can be thrown onto those working minimum wage instead? They say "lets not divide the workforce". Staying fairly quiet now i see.

    Lovely,

    Better to be a member of a union than not!

    Speaking of unions, i guess its the unions are at fault here more than the workers themselves. They are quick enough to try and ally the support of the private sector.

    when it suits them,

    I heard it that all workers right across the board will be taxed on their incomes which means the lowest paid will struggle to survive.

    Yeah shit happens sometimes west . We're all in it together , like it or not for the next decade at least . And if the lower paid were taxed an extra say 10 euro a week , that wont hurt them too much would it . Thats a lot of money the govt could take in off people who contribute very little as is . No doubt tho that you'd prefer the docs and teachers and garda and the rest of the pub service to keep paying out time after time , after all aren't they only a shower of c%&$s in your eyes

    I have a friend who is an electrician . He has told me that over the past 2 yrs his nixer work has dried up ( mine has totally disappeared too ). He used to do shower installation , re wiring etc and the people who gave him this work were mainly people in the public service , not the lower paid workers . We had a few beers last week and this subject came up . And he is very worried that if the public service are gonna be targeted again and again , that he'll be up shit creek with no paddle sooner than later . So if any of you are tradesmen , like my friend and i , maybe you should think differently and support the public sector and not bash them like there's no tomorrow .
