Been given a warning. What does this mean.

[quote="coxie"]cutting off means if you cannot complete your duty by your finish time of 2:15 you can take whatever mail back to the office you have left even if its 2 or 3 bags and say sorry i have run out of time and couldnt complete see you tomorrow lol.


Think this needs a bit more clarity, unless Cyber will be in more trouble. If you come in and when you have thrown up, you feel you don`t have enough time to complete. Then you find your manager and tell him and ask what he wishes you to do. Apart from trying to get you to stay out and complete, he has two choices, take out what you can complete or take it all out and bring back what`s left when your time is up. WHATEVER you do always ask a manager, cover your back , with a witness if possible.

Cyberheater: You did nothing wrong pouching off missorts, as long as you didn't have time to deliver them. You should never take mail home however. Next busy day, before you leave the office, get hold of your manager and tell him that it's busy, you'll be finishing at or after your proper finishing time, so what should you do with any missorts you might have. Let him make a decision as to what you do with them, but don't be bullied into agreeing to deliver them after your finish time.

I think that's the approach I'm going to be taking from now on. I'm not prepared to work past my hours so get them to decide how they carve up my day. I can't do it all.

I agree with what you're planning to do, but as your manager hasn't given you a formal warning, to be on the safe side I'd let the dust settle for a week or two before becoming a pain in the arse for him.

f**k em be a pain in the arse, that's why they get paid more than us. Give them something else to do besides bullying new posties and standing at the end of the aisle drinking cups of tea while we grind away on IPS.

Yes but he doesn't need his manager making the warning more serious, which he could do.

Yeah. You've got a good point. As much as I'd love to give 'em a hard time. It's probably better for me to play it smart. As others have said, this could have gone pretty bad for me so I'll 'work' tactfully with the management team to resolve this issue and try not to rock the boat.
