I was really upset to read yesterday's @ucu email from @DrJoGrady. It's not okay to ask colleagues to 'create work for your manager'. Managers too are tired. Managers too are overloaded. Most are working really hard to support colleagues in difficult circumstances. #ucustrikes
I'm all for exhorting members to talk to their managers. If people are struggling (or even if they aren't) constructive, supportive conversations about workloads are essential. And I welcome the chance to report the unsustainability of workloads to more senior colleagues.
But to suggest that this is something retributive or to be done out of spite -- to suggest that members should actively seek to make life more difficult for colleagues and fellow @ucu members -- is totally and fundamentally against the spirit of the #ucustrikes.
