Got mine in the smoke and delivered quite a few today.

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.

As I am deaf is the DVD worth watching or not.

I know I will vote for NO. But I want all the details.

Don't forget anyone who doesnt receive their ballot paper and has a spare £10,000 or so can go straight to the High Court and get the whole vote set aside, just like B.A. and Railtrack

Looked at the letters from Royal Mail and CWU and watch Video. (No subtitles or anything to encourage deaf people)

Vote NO to both, and post it in the morning.

If Royal Mail want it badly, they will probably increase the offer maybe from 20 to 30 pounds a week and bigger bribe next time.

I am not happy with workload or possibility of doing two walks in one day or losing my Saturday afternoon to watch football and I probably be too tired to do dancing if I do say 7-8 hours walks each day four times a week.
