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.

2 weeks of Disruption Planned for all Postal Services

The Communication Workers’ Union has announced an escalation of the level of strike action in Royal Mail. Although postal workers will individually take 2 days of strike action in the next two weeks, the strikes announced mean that there will be two weeks of continuous disruption to mail services. The strikes call out separate functions nationally on different days and the timing is aimed at maximising the impact on mail.



The clear escalation of the strike has been called because Royal Mail have made it clear they are unwilling to engage in any meaningful negotiations



“We have contacted Royal Mail leaders on copious occasions, consistently asking for negotiations to find a resolution to the dispute. Royal Mail management continue to ignore the union and its’ workforce. This is absolutely unacceptableâ€
