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.

They have more to lose, they are on more money, bigger mortgages, more demanding wives etc etc.
I have absolutely no sympathy for them.
No I'm not being paranoid, they really are out to get me.

Lincox wrote:This just shows how much man management experience Higson has, and how little he knows about human relations. Keep it up Mark, we will soon have the managers out with us as well. This company will survive because it has a dedicated workforce and the competition are still nowhere. They are already bleating about being overstretched and cutting off their computer sales programmes for fear of damaging relationships with existing customers. We need to keep the pressure on and eventually the stakeholder will turn in on these make a fast buck parasites, and then hopefully we can look forward to a new beginning with meaningful modernisation where a fresh management team can work alongside us dedicated people and provide a company that is fit for the future, which benefits all of us and not a few people who believe that modernisation is decimation of the workforce, twist the arm of the few who are silly enough to have their arms twisted to work like lemmins, to create a false profit that has no chance of being maintained. These people do not have the skills of true entrepreneurs, to get out in the marketplace and win new and profitable business. They expect it to fall into their laps. Instead of paying huge bonuses to these executive managers, who haven,t even the skills to make themselves look bright on t/v interviews, we should be bringing in top notch sales people, so that when we do get properly tooled up, the business has forward thinking individuals to create the wealth that will make this company successful again, and make the rewards for hard work favourable for everyone and provide a proper retirement for the many years of foot slogging a postie has to do throughout his or her working life.
Lincox, a superb post :Applause

Paul Reuter and UNITE are as bad as RM. If he had any backbone he would have told his members not to cross the CWU Picket-Lines. How can they call themselves a union when they carry on like this. And they are the biggest union in Britain!
Now it looks like they might have to call on industrial action because of the way RM senior management are treating their members. If I was a CWU senior I would make them crawl and beg if they asked for CWU assistance, and even then I would make them wait until the last minute.
UNITE should be ashamed of themselves for the way they have let their members bully the CWU members. If the UNITE members do have to go on strike I hope that the CWU members do not cross their Picket-Lines so they can look the UNITE members in their eyes and let them know that CWU members understand what the word SOLIDARITY means even though UNITE members are definately not flavour of the month.

ps. If they do go on strike I don't think a little bit of ribbing would be amiss.

If the strikes are not called off on Thursday and Friday we may well see some the Unite union reps supporting us on the picket lines nationwide.
