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.

Have to be careful though if you can't get your SA covered.

Jobs are/have been going hand over fist since 2003, and without providing a single scrap of benefit to the remaining staff. At least this way, the remaining staff will be recieving the benefit of whole weekends with their families.
In this latest shambolic deal the CWU have saddled us with, they make it absolutely clear that they agree with RM management that there will be fewer people working for the company in the near future, meaning sloggers like us, why not gain something for a change, rather than have this lose/lose scenario forever?
