When is enough enough?

Post by SF »

Our office is getting ridiculous. Postman are being expected to do way too much. Too much mail, too many packets, lapsing, 5-6 households a week, under staffed, management refusing to listen..

Cut offs galore the past 2-3 months.

I assume it's the same everywhere else.

Does it every change? Or do we just keep accepting it? When do we strike? :vcfo :Very Happy

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.

Couldn't possibly agree with the above, any more than i already do ! :Applause :Applause :Applause :Applause

Their rules, their pitch, their ball, they can do what they like between my start time and my finish time, with me working to a steady and continuose pace and being willing to undergo any time/motion testing they want to do. :cuppa
