and we will be getting "a little something" next month, so that should be the other £400 presumably.
Or is it just the local savings? Have heard we are in line for about £100 give or take a little.
Because we've gone over our budget does that mean that we have to pay money back in :hmmmm

400 pounds Oh well it is nice surprise when I came home from my weekend away. Look like most of my season ticket for next season will be paid for.

I don't believe it as I have been reading the telegraph saying Royal Mail is planning to move to 5 days a week to cut cost.

It costs 1.5 BILLION less, to run Royal Mail now, than when Leighton & Crozier first showed their ugly faces.

1.5 BILLION, that's how much their cuts up to now have saved the business. When will enough be enough for these cnuts, ffs. :evil/mad

What does 'pro-rata' mean?
I'm PT and got £100, that's quarter of the £400, but my contract is 25 hours, more than half of 40 hours.
Surely I should have got £200+?

Don't post how long you have worked for but maybe it's something to do with your length of service?.

What is WTL?
Only kidding, I know what it is, it's just that we haven't had one in the last 9 months.
