Managers day off

Post by BLACKHEART »

Question friends,who covers your managers day off ?. are they qualified to do so ?. This seems to be a question being asked all over, whatever happened to grade for grade cover. is the person covering a delivery support opg or a managerial grade ??.

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.

When our lino is off the DOM wheels out a scarecrow dressed in an RM uniform into the middle of the floor. It's just as effective as the regular guy, as we ignore it as well. :dance
