This man.....

For those that don't recognise him,he's obviously incredibly shy and has managed to evade the attentions,
of the media,the workforce,and the C.W.U.
He's Donald Brydon,and replaced Alan Leighton as the Chairman of Royal mail!! :silenced

I mentioned him to some colleagues on the picket line and everyone said 'Who?', nobody had heard of him. I told them he took over from :lfo and had a lot of experience in the communications industry........NOT! and I still think he looks like Roy Evans out of Eastenders.
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

Taylor Nelson Sofres plc (TNS) is pleased to announce the appointment of Donald Brydon as Chairman, with immediate effect. He succeeds Tony Cowling, who today retires from the board.

Donald Brydon, 60, is Chairman of Smiths Group plc and The London Metal Exchange and is Senior Independent Director of Scottish Power plc. Following 20 years with Barclays Group, during which time he was Chairman and Chief Executive of BZW Investment Management, he joined AXA Group in 1997 and is currently Chairman of AXA Investment Managers SA.

This guy is a "profesional chairman" so we're not likely to see much of him.A very busy man by the looks of it.
good times, bad times you know I've had my share

I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
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.

It wasn't unusual for him to make nearly 200 flights a year as chairman of Axa.
I don't think somehow, he will be talking to many postmen/postwomen.
Royal Mail needs a Richard Branson type character.
He made a point of wandering around his business talking to staff, tasting the food the airline was serving etc.
"hands on" is the phrase I'm looking for.
ROYAL MAIL EXECS HAVE NEVER BEEN SO OUT OF TOUCH AS THIS COLLECTION OF BANKERS.

Mr Softee and we're not talking about Ice Cream either :chuckle - though if two men were really fighting over Fat Pat , they'd want their bumps feeling :hmmmm - the bitch fight between Peggy & Pat was properly done as you'd expect from character actresses that have been around since the 60's .
