No problem, you have a contract. Work to it and RM regulations. Do no more or no less, dont get worked up or stressed. Leave that to this superb management team that RM has. They are paid for getting stressed. We are not.

Offices never stick together on work to rule, and union rep is full off bull, if RM say's 18 hours, then 18 hours it is. the rep will back down....

Based on productivity in the postal sphere a 40 hour manager being got rid off you still have to find 17 hours. But if they included Yorkie Support work, coffee making, minesweeper professionalism, sickness procedure inflexibility and making a simple job difficult you'd probably hit the target. :Very Happy :Very Happy :Very Happy
