Very Interesting...... Is there a set formula ????
Have a constant battle in our office with the DOM adjusting/playing about with the list without agreement :no no :no no . Our holls are poor you do get the first two weeks you want as a general rule but the rest is just pot luck.....
We have around 110 employees in our office and the number of slots average about 10 in total FT and PT.....Not Enough :mad :mad

1 person off for every 7 staff you should have 5 staff off a week. And more if you lapse

34 (OPG's) x by 6 (max leave entitlement)/50 (2 weeks blocked because of xmas) = 4.08

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.

So your xmas pressure is the whole of Dec then?
We've been here before with this,a lot of you are being had.
When does your xmas pressure hrs (if any) start?
