Why not agree? Ask for a new permanent 40hr contract and let your manager know that you will consider a generous buydown offer in the new year

IF they have changed your contract they HAVE to give you 28 days notice in writing,if they haven't then you DON'T change.

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.

Not Glasgow area....but close enough(Ayrshire). Our p/t's are getting made up to 40hrs over 6days.....they all wanted it to put them in line for 100% Christmas bonus...!! I'm surmising if anyone had rejected it they would've worked their usual hrs and if any excess delivery was created through this , then it would've went out on pressure...!!!
