That is wrong and goes against our agreements,you should query that higher up.

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.

A few people in my office seemed to have been paid off, 12 weeks pay each.
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

12 X 280 pounds (Say after tax) = 3360 pounds - Not worth bothering.

They're probably on the way out anyway (on Stages or conduct code) and have been pulled in and told they're better off
taking the money and going, than getting dismissed with nothing.

It was the same as "Job and Finish"..... Putting your name on a list of evr is the same as saying that you are not much interested in RM. I wonder how many will be picked on until they leave? J & F showed up who would run round and how much time they made, this is the other side of the scheme. One neat list. You just can't trust em..

One thing I have learned in life is never to put your name to anything and avoid at all costs!! Especially with RM! I try my upmost not to sign anything at work usually they forget or give up... I know my will is stronger than theirs!! :chuckle
