Chief Engineer
Job Type:Full time
City:London and Swindon (UK travel required)
Country:United-Kingdom
Salary:130,000 £ per annum
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.

Then again, the only spanners I like to deal with are chrome-vanadium, rather than over-weight and wearing Primark suits.... :whistle
