Bring back the good old days, when you automatically got time and half for ALL hours on a Saturday, Double time for Sunday working, and Double Double Time if you were on the Sunday Collections Rota :Applause

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.
