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.

I ve had worse than that.

Once when I was doing some much needed afternoon OT on the enquiry counter a young women in grey joggers and a dirty T shirt came in to ask if we had her giro. I explained that all deliveries were now completed for the day and there would be no more mail till the next day. To please her I went and looked at the frame and the missort frame to check but found nothing.

She really went into one and ended up shouting that she was going home to wake her husband and he was going to come down and see me so I’d better have her F**cking giro. This was 2pm by the way. :left:

So I was dreading this guy coming down in a rage but funny enough this kinda spaced out skinny bloke came in and was really calm about it when I explained the situation and went away without any trouble.

I thought that was it bit NO about an hour later she was back with her kids no less and screaming at me to explain to her children why they would be going without their take away dinner tonight. She then went on to suggessted I give her £20 out of the till to pay for it.

It got really messy and we ended up threatening to call the police unless she left, which she finally did. What a pig of a day that was.
Rows of houses all bearing down on me........I can feel their blue hands touching me.......All these things in all positions.........All these things will one day take control..........

Similar situation no giro on a sat morning del (the wage packet was already 2 days late!). chap went into one telling me he didn't know what he was going to do for the weekend. So offered to lend him some money, which he would have gratefully accepted if I'd had more than the 17 pence left from my morning coffee money. Instead the ungratefully lazy fat b*****d tosser told me to f**k off,!There's no pleasing some people :Very Happy :cuppa

Wait until its 4pm on a saturday and their giro turns up.

Then they'll have to give the betting shop/cigs/alcohol a miss.

There are actually very few blokes live on my duty, I see them at the houses all the time but there was no polling cards for them. Must be a mix up at the local election place. :whistle
