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.

Finished picket duty for today,

good turn out and morale is strong, fire was raging 1st thing but at a steady simmer when i left, managers going in and out,some staring to cause a reaction, some looking a bit sheepish and some looking like they would like to be somewhere else, ( AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH ).

Oh the Bacon and Egg sarnie's and hot tea was a delight, and i thank the shop who supplied us 20 Posties, of for a Kip now ready for next picket shift.

Burslem will stay strong , you just watch, it was good to see you doing a walk today.

Postal carriers protest in Brick
Posted by the Asbury Park Press on 03/11/07

FREEHOLD BUREAU

BRICK — Postal workers from throughout New Jersey picketted in front of the Brick post office this afternoon in protest to what they perceive as ongoing managerial abuses by Postmaster Thomas Wagner.

Demonstrators totaling 120 came from other post offices, including Edison, Toms River and Trenton, where Wagner had been in charge, and joined the Brick workers, according to union employee officials. The demonstrators carried placards and marched in a circle in front of the post office on Chambers Bridge Road from noon to 2 p.m.

"He created a hostile work environment for everybody here in Brick,'' said Ed Decker, president of the National Association of Letter Carriers Local 5420 in Brick.

Wagner has a controversial history in his postal management career, attracting complaints and news coverage, but getting promoted and reassigned, the union said.

The U.S. Postal Service is expected to have a comment later in the day. Wagner, through a supervisor, referred questions to a Postal Service spokesman."

:oops: Can anyone correct me if I'm wrong but I hear de-Marco changed his name from John Smith or something to Giovanni de-Marco because he's obviously got some sort of delusions. He must think he's descended from them medieval Italian whotsits who went round doing something similar to what the pizza-man is trying to do in Stoke. I hear he got found out when he had to appear at a ETP and had to give his real name under oath :d'oh! :d'oh! :d'oh! :d'oh! :d'oh!

I received a letter today telling me RM are going to stop me 6 days pay. The thing is I'm on annual leave so it should only be the three days for last week. This can only be one of four things.
1. A complete oversight by RM
2. The inability of RM to check who's' on annual or sick leave.
3. A deliberate attempt at a wind up.
4. A callous disregard by RM for their employees.

I don't know which reason it is but I'm just glad I'm not of sick with stress as this letter would only add to the problem.

RM incapable of devious tricks

RM are incapable of devious tricks in relation to this. SOunds to me like payroll/HR incompetence.

RM find it difficult enough to do the simple things

:crazy:
