Congratulations Cowpat :Applause Hope it's for real. As Spilie says just watch out for the TEMPORARY pitfall. We've been told we need to recruite 10 new guys. But, you've guessed it, they won't consider making any of our PT guys up to FT. :arrrghhh

Not until our complete area has done it's revision (sometime in 2015 perhaps!) just in-case they need to transfer Posties from other offices who may be made Redundant. Don't know of any nearby DOs that are flush with posties though. Most seem to be understaffed like us. :sad:

Good luck with the new contract :Applause

Rm aren't making people from part-time to full-time, although maybe its temporary. I had a problem going from full-time to part-time, it took 4 weeks to correct. :arrrghhh

IIRC HR sent me 2 copies of a revised contract and I returned 1 signed.
