Good on you doing it, more power to you and others in similar positions.
PS : Join a union , a proper union that will stand up to the employer
Also deleted my first reply as again , I don't know if I can trust people on here to not be on the blower to CCC
I didn't bite, but as you've gone in again with a personal dig, then yes. It's not a skilled job, it doesn't say anything about the people doing it, but there are no skills required so it pays market forces. When there aren't people willing to do it wages will increase, until then move on if its not suitable, but why should residents suffer for selfishness?
Isn't that the whole point. There's a massive shortage of HGV drivers and wages have increased.It's not a skilled job, it doesn't say anything about the people doing it, but there are no skills required so it pays market forces.

Trust the semtex kid to dislike ToriesTrust the Leamington and Warwick member to be a tory

I never understand the 'I haven't had a pay rise so nobody should get one' idea. If bills are going up shouldn't we be pushing for everyone to get pay rises?
Never read the mail, not in L&W supporters, bit let's not let the truth get in the way of a tabloid headline. I think we know who the mail readers really areTrust the daily mail reader to hate the working class
Oddly as that creates catastrophic wage inflation

On yer bike lad

I didn't say you weren't worth more, I said market forces will dictate your rate, not holding a gun to someone's head. There are other jobs out there, if you're not happy with what you get for what you do then move ascwecall have to.
Unions dragging us back to the 70s

I'm working class ffs, nothing wrong with striving to do better and not expecting someone else to do it for you.Not denying the hating the working class bit!
Low blow admittedly but your general tone on this thread doesn't come across well to be honest.

If it helps my ancestors are fruit and veg marketeers, my my mum was a hairdresser. Am I allowed in now?
The private market has. You're not in the private market. You could be, move jobs get better pay. Nobody is denying you that. If people won't work for the council rates they'll increase, until then fo the job you're paid to do. You have a contract, I assume how pissed off would you be if they didn't honour their side and paid you late, less or not at all?And the market has determined my wage to be more than what I get .. hence the strike action .
Cheers

Work for Birmingham then!I can't drop it
Birmingham Council, NOT private , have just been awarded a pay rise to over 9000 my rate and get 4.50 a day food allowance, so tell me how my little niche market doesn't determine my wage when I've just SHOWN you it does ?
For the same job too
Work for Birmingham then!
It's like talking to my 9 year old daughter
Hi birmingham , got a job ?
None available , cheers
Now what
Of course tthere's none available, they pay more! That's the point.
If Aldi paid more than Tesco can an employee ask his store manager to pay him more? They can, but if the answer is no then their choice is lump it or apply to go and work for Aldi.

Or go on strike
Very circular argument, but again at the expense of the residents not getting the service they are paying for.
It was a general point to striking, I don't live in Cov any more no, but that doesn’t invalidate my opinion.Sound , then don't moan when workers are trying to be paid fairly for the job they do , to be paid the rate they deserve to match their comrades doing to same job for other local authorities ..
Your Input here has been sadly dreadful , besides you don't live in Coventry? I should have skipped your opinion from the get go tbh ..it's meaningless
I don't protest, never have. Not a fan of it tbh.What is the point of protest if not to be inconvenient?
Oddly when inflation exceeds wage growth for years it devalues the security of full time work
