That is what I found most strange about RM is that I get paid for the week the same week, when I started I was expecting to be a week in lieu kinda thing so always 1 week behind thats usually how it works.

Only twice in four years has it not turned up, for me anyway.

Contracted hours are paid the same week, while overtime payments are a week behind. ;)

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.
