Whoop de do...more money out of the business in golden handshakes and pension top-ups just so that she can bring in her own bunch of equally slimy slash and burn merchants that will sing to her tune....i positively can't wait.

Mmm Good Point, but then again maybe you are just been unusually pesimistic and cynical

Me pessimistic...never
I'm just a realist gb...every new boss brings in their own back room staff these days.
They're loyal because they owe you a living,pre-trained to applaud and nod wisely and they already know how you like your coffee.
Geenie-ass as they say.

Didn't Crozier say in a speech to the C.B.I (Or similar organisation) that one third of the managers in the RM were good, one third were adequate and one third useless or words to that effect. I'm sure it can't be too difficult to establish the "Dead Wood" in the company. Lets start with the HR department! or perhaps the waste of paper that is the Courier!.I'm sure that takes a pretty penny to run or perhaps the latest wheeze the "Alba News" celebrating all thats good in the RM Scotland does anyone know how this came about?.

A moron making a speech to a bunch of w*****s.
Crozier is the perfect example of the sort of excessively greedy, completely dishonest, hopelessly incompetent bastard, that makes the working lives of millions of people, such a depressing waste of precious life.
Crozier, and those c***s in the CBI, nothing a good marksman armed with an M16 machine gun couldn't take care of.

There is still a day left for it to come true DVB, but as I said before I'll believe it when I see it

[pinstripe]

Oh God Dingo stop teasing me.If true, this could be one WTL where i actually give a toss.

You still get WTL? We haven't had one in months, though we've more than enough managers to do them. They way it's going they'll be done on a one to one basis.

Could that be what the toady national briefing was about:

If it was about regions merging wouldn't that mean less managers would be needed?
OK I know this is Royal Mail so they'll probably create more managers jobs.

At LS8 we had 75 posties and 1(good) manager,Now we have 50 posties and 2 managers plus DOM assist.Why can't we lapse managers.Let one do mon,tues,weds and the other can do thur,fri,sat?

Good idea, make them all part time. No need for them all to be in the office whilst we are out on delivery. They only need to be working 4 hours a day with 1 full time to cover breakdowns(not nervous breakdowns) and whatnots etc

[dvbuk55]

Well to add fuel to the flame I have heard that there may be a possibility in the not too distant future for manager buy downs.................though like you storm, I'll believe it when I see it.

Although there may be some truth in it, I mean with the CWU as yet another tier of management these days...............................
