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.

Given the inclement weather conditions, after consulting the RM Severe Weather Policy, it may have been a joint decision between the Rep and the Dom to suspend the use of trollies.
If you look at the hilly streets he is delivering to, the use of trolleys may never have been implemented.

No excuse for not wearing a hi-viz in those conditions though.
And did his Dom not order enough fingerless gloves?
And no chains/spikes either.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.
