I'm starting this diary as a place for SPS people to comment about the Tuesday after school action - or other issues.
I've set the comments to "Anonymous". Please use a fake name so people can respond to your comments. Do NOT write confidential stuff about fellow workers!
IF you're an SPS person and you'd like to publish diaries of your own, you should know how to contact me via email, do so & I'll set you up to be a diary writer.
I have a LOT of feelings about how effective our union is - and I think 1 of the pillars of the ineffectiveness is how processes are set up so that we can't participate unless we're willing to waste hours at meetings.
