Transfer list?

Post by POSTMAN »

Got a query,is there such a thing as a transfer list where we could look at who wants to move and shake ect?

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.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

I transferred 2o odd years ago and was on the transfer lists to several offices I fancied moving to. Getting to the top of the list could take a lifetime with low turnover - places like Lake District, Devon etc. I could phone an offices Personnel Dept and they could see what number I was on the list. At the time the rule was one tranferree accepted to every 5 new recruits in each office. You can exchange offices with someone willing, whether on the list to your place or not. I dont think they will let you have look at the list though (confidentiality).

I think you'll find that you're on a free transfer (and for a reduced contract). :nervous

I transfered to the peak district 7 years ago onto a lovely rural round,it took me 3 years to get it though,after my first transfer request was lost without me knowing.Luckily the lads in the office told me that there was a driving vacancy,so i did all the spadework and got it.Ive never looked back since. :Very Happy
