If you don't like the job leave, its not a hard decision is it.

I don't see why anybody should be driven out of the job by bullying management .Dindin wrote:Quite an uncalled for commentmattjo1@talktalk.net wrote:If you don't like the job leave, its not a hard decision is it.

I love the job and still do even though it's changed a lot over the years. We never used to employ the overrunning procedure but now it's more common im finding that managers seem to be giving staff grief if they don't wish to do any overtime. Yes I know Xmas is just round the corner and everything but I'm not asking the gaffer for 4 loops off - just a loop off or some packets off here and there.mattjo1@talktalk.net wrote:If you don't like the job leave, its not a hard decision is it.
On the face of it, shareholder value is the dumbest idea in the world.

Sorry sir, but you are talking rubbish! I have done the job for 10 years and want to change but I can't as unemployment in my area in the S.East of Kent is rife and I can't find other full time employment (let alone anything that pays as good) so no, you sometimes can't just leave. Can't draw the dole (not that I want to) if you make yourself unemployed!mattjo1@talktalk.net wrote:If you don't like the job leave, its not a hard decision is it.

mattjo1 you are not.
Dindin YOU are stronger than you think you are...the sarky/ nasty mattjo1-types will always be lurking, turning their bile and bitterness on others to make themselves feel better about their 'lot' in life...remember you Dindin, have done nothing wrong and should hold your head high with dignity in that knowledge. Stay strong. Stay gold!

The stress can be very real esp this time of year. A few years ago i was on a very unbalanced duty over xmas and was finishing around 2 hours later than most. I was getting hassle from the managers for extending and hassle from the OPG's as they were waiting for the van to start SA collections.Dindin wrote:I struggle when I get home and sometimes I find it hard to walk down stairs because my ankles hurt my legs throb I have constant fear of cutting off eg a sarky on a Tuesday from a lino comment.

The pressure built up and i ended up not sleeping worrying about going in each day. In the end i had to go off sick for a few days just to sleep. Coming back i spoke to my rep and he arranged that part of my delivery was advanced in the prep stage which did help me get finished earlier.
Sometimes you have to speak to someone and admit your struggling under pressure. Speak to your rep or your manager and make them aware how your feeling.
Best of luck.
Rows of houses all bearing down on me........I can feel their blue hands touching me.......All these things in all positions.........All these things will one day take control..........

I’m in the same position myself, I’ve gone over by at least an hour every day for the last month (even when I’ve stated I need to finish on time but get given the guilt trip by management).. I release others go over as well because of Xmas, election material etc, but I’m moved near enough everyday to walks I don’t know and am not give any help with taking a bit of the work load off me. Been working for Royal Mail for 2 and a bit years now but I’m still in my mid 20s so think I’ve decided screw this and I’m leaving, don’t need the stress or arguments every day.
