Office Visitors

Post by Stormproof »

A woman and a bloke were wandering round the office this morning with visitor hi-vis's on. I see they were chatting to people working their way along the aisles, I assumed they were some charity trying to get people to sign up for a voluntary deduction. I thought I'd got missed :angel turns out they were'nt charity people but managers from another office trying to brainwash us. I was the last one out and she realised she had'nt spoken to me, so I got the 20 questions off her. Lets say after the day I had yesterday I gave her a few home truths :dance the only response I kept getting back was 'If you don't like your job, LEAVE!' I bet she reads the Torygraph. I think she was from Gatwick, kept going on about the new machinery :cuppa
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

Next time they come up to speak to you just hold your hand up and say 'I've no time to talk to you because it's not allowed in my duty time but if you'd like to take some of my delivery off me then I'd be happy to talk to you' :chuckle then ask them for their official ID and ask why they're not wearing the appropriate 'Manager' Hi-Viz.

You should have said I like my Job.... it`s the w*****s that claim to manage I can`t stand!
Royal Mail managers.....about as popular as a t.urd in a swimming pool!
The DDA/Equality Act demands action,NOT words......adjustments NOT Occupational Health referrals.Case No:2505901/09
Royal Mail is an Equal Opportunities Employer..It discriminates against everybody.

It was, am I now likely to get grief after what I had to say? If she had actually told me who she was I would've said a lot more :wink:

My manager seems in knee trembling awe of her, I would love to meet her,better still her to meet our guys and listen to them.

Maybe if she is doing the rounds she will be down our way soon.
