The time has come to stop turning the other cheek, time to stop shaking our heads in bitter dismay, time to stop mumbling our angry words.
The time has come for union.

What about the frame she was double prepping. And the IPS where she was working/clearing down?Broxi51 wrote: The Press have been told that the office will remain open with a deep clean of the woman's work area and van to be carried out.
And the toilets she used? And the PHG locker where she went to collect her Specials? The area she cleared parcels from?
Anywhere else she might have coughed and spluttered?
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Surely test and trace would point to a large majority of the office to be isolated?
Can never work out why this doesn't happen.

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.
