Keep an eye on your hours, you may find that your workmates may have to make up the hours so make sure you don't.

Wouldn't put it past em to extend the working time by 2 hrs every day, in the past we have had to come back after doing the walks to do more IPS or anything else they can dream up!!HootyMacBoob wrote:I dont believe RM will be using clawback WLPwestlondonpostie wrote:RoyalQuest wrote:What a load of rubbish!!!

As the official bank holiday falls on the Monday (and you're off Sat and Mon) you will get a bank holiday credit for the Monday. Also you get paid as if you had worked the Friday. Some you win, some you lose.

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.
