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.

I used to work for a DIY store and someone was actually sent in for some of the traditional wind up transactions such as a long weight, glass hammer etc. Poor lad, we had to explain it to him.

haha, this reminds me, one of the top former cardinals in the Philippines was called 'Cardinal Sin':

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaime_Cardinal_Sin
His name should not be confused with "cardinal sin", which is synonymous for the seven deadly sins, and it has also been the source of many jokes in the Philippines revolving around him such as "The greatest sin of all...Cardinal Sin" or "Welcome to the House of Sin" referring to his Church.
