Think it's time to pack up and go home.

Post by POSTMAN »

We tried here on RMC,and it will be good for Teebs to get his life back,we've helped and entertained a lot of you but it's time to let it go.

We will now leave you safe in the knowledge that with the CWU and the backbone you've got that everything is going to change for the better.

Best wishes and good luck.

Oh and for the Facebookers on the site (you can use your kids to have a look if you're keeping your head down from the outside world) here is what helped me decide to move on...

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.

Not guilty of being an FB member, so cannot read...

But is this the end of RMC altogether? :sad:

Someone on the CWU facebook page is complaining that there isn't enough free pens about their office. :crazy:

.... and then a senior CWU officer instead of advising that RM should issue them, saw it as an opportunity to make some sales. :crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

Wish I had a wee pen thing on my PDA, telling everyone not to take the top off my pen and don't lean too hard for every signature is a pain. :sad:

Under the CWU, members have access to pens that are far and in away better than pens used by people working for TNT or UKMail. And without us continuing to donate to the political fund, these standards in pens would be seriously threatened.

(And, of course, in London, postal workers don't even use pens. A special team of classically trained calligraphers is assigned to each office.)

Seriously, though. Good luck and God speed. Thanks for taking the time to volunteer for this forum.
