If necessary you could cut them out of an old corn flake packet, a bit like us older ones learnt to do from Blue Peter. :Very Happy

Your manager can order them through the regional asset manager. He probably doesn't know how though. RM like to keep it secret how you order stuff so people don't bother :crazy:

I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
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.

At our place we have active WCM staff nicking them in order to share them out again and come across as some sort of mail centre hero...
