Perhaps you should drink coffee. Although It does confirm that mangers don't drink from the cup of human kindness.

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.

You should see the Goons in our office. The cleaner brings them a cup of tea just about every hour. Here's an idea! Someone slip LSD into their tea pot and they will be able to bull**** at twice their normal rate.

Thanks for touching base with me on that. I'll flag it up and see who wants to cascade it down. Someone might want to jump into bed with me on it and let me have a ballpark figure. :wink:

Yes i remember those days as well deadasadodo, 50p tea money per week and tea always on boil, brilliant and now weve got bosses who ark back to the 1930s, they think the best way to get the best out of staff is to bully them, some of them are kids who have got a degree in washing up and know nothing about life.
Next time your in the bosses office drop a kipper down the back of his radiator, and it will stink the s**ts office up, it really does stink weve done it before at our office...UNITY IS STRENGTH.
