I’m not going to trawl through your posts but I vaguely remember seeing that. I also remember thinking it proved nothing.

As far as I’m aware men also have children. Maybe you’re the one being sexist.

You’re being wilfully obtuse. And maybe you are – as has already been suggested by an objective and impartial observer – showing your misogynistic inner thoughts. Because this little lady dares to express views that differ from your own caveman-type views, you feel a burning need to identify and locate me!

To be fair, they have done that with me too. It is beyond creepy that random people on the internet try and track you down for daring to have a different opinion on an internet forum. I have even had members on here set up alternate accounts and PM me for personal details. There are some deranged folks out there. That said, I have never revealed my gender either, I don’t think, so maybe people have been presuming I am female all along. It suddenly makes sense.

In all honesty, I notice similar in my workplace, with female members of staff being more prone to bullying from management, which has been addressed in our office, but must still go on nationwide. I guess this site just reflects that.

I work at one of the better DOs, but we still have a minority at ours who behave in exactly this sort of way. Our managers are actually all decent folk, but frustratingly, they are seemingly powerless to eradicate the perpetrators once and for all, with culprits being transferred, given warnings, it coming to nothing, etc, etc…

Just one example. Not long after I went permanent, we had a newish gay woman paired for the day with an old-timer who quizzed her all day about her sex life and told her he would “convert her”, asking her if she had ever had a man, did she fancy him, etc. he even made her swap numbers when in the van under the guise of needing it for when they went off their separate ways to do their loops.

She came back in tears, really upset, and didn’t feel confident to raise with managers as this old-timer had told her he had the managers under the thumb — def not true BtW. Instead, on our naive advice, she went to the doorstepping union rep for support and advice, and he told her this was the normal culture and that if she didn’t have thick enough skin then it wasn’t the job for her. She quit later that week. He is still there, still making crude remarks openly…

It's like Jackanory in ere now.

Why? Is it you?! Were you there, chum?

[Smoothbackground]

Go on, tell us your version of events. Did she give you mixed signals?

[Ren Hoëk]

It's just pathetic now...

[Smoothbackground]

It is pathetic indeed that you have again shown your misogynistic views by minimising or dismissing a real story of sexual harassment in your workplace.

You again waded in with your Jackanory comment, implying that you categorically can gainsay what I have set out re what led to the poor girl leaving, and so I asked you for your version of events. I pose the question again: if what I have set out did not happen, what did?

So we should believe you but not him?

I don't believe a word you said. I think you hate seniority and anything to do with the Union.
If this was the case, the Postman should have been sacked and the Union rep loose his position.
I believe you have no seniority and are not in the Union. This is the only reason you would come up with some Jackanory comment.

In a nutshell, that was precisely why she left - she felt she would be disbelieved or that her experience would be dismissed. Yiu sum it up succinctly.

I don't believe a word you say. Why would/should I believe this. I think you only come on here to stir s**t.

But if you would like a story.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. Royal Mail employed social media assistants to utilise them as union busters and to cause division in the ranks. Weirdly, although they were told to stand down some of them continue their efforts. It was easy to spot them as they never had anything constructive to say nor really added anything of value with any real knowledge of the job. They only offered contentious views or contrary opinion. They had their script, thats all they knew. Like a dog that couldn't stop chasing their tail.

If only there was an option to suggest a thread could be locked due to going totally off topic.

[sweepster70]

I'll bring it back......
We're heading to the gig economy fast.
Our pay rise is s**t.
Our workload is far more demanding than a Man/Woman who works in a shop.
They are getting a bigger pay rise than us.
We are institutionalised.
We are f****d.
