Either your line manager or the DOM.
You didn't think you wouldn't still have 2 managers did you?
The ad says you will be working in a team of four. One postie, one line manager, one DOM, and a WCM manager to put up graphs and pie charts which nobody reads.
managers read the pie charts....especially the ones in greggs....oh..and billy

Yes, like matey at the top. No doubt embellished with a background showing huddles of penguins.
Speaking of which, the penguins in Antarctic tend to congregate around the areas where humans are settled and leave heaps of slippery guano over the rocks and flat areas: I'd like to know what footwear will be safe walking over that.

One super benefit though would be NO door-dustbins to throw off and deliver. Please don't tell me there is a f***ing Domino's in the BAT too?
