MEARS - Are we going to get laid off?

Post by Typing Monkey »

Any thoughts? Will MEARS lead to any sites being reduced or closed? Will this in turn lead to redundancies or re-roling?

And can the site mods change the Smilies of Leighton, Crozier, and Mandelson as all 3 have left the business?

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.

Probably.

Instead of "letting people go", they will just allow for natural wastage (ie people leaving to go other jobs, etc.) and not recruit any new keyers. Eventually, there will be a point where it becomes economically viable to close one of the MDEC's. Which one, who knows?

I bet the people who moan about how bad working at the MDEC is will moan even harder when their jobs are put under threat. Can't win.

Anyone any idea where our illustrious leader is? Hardly see him anymore. Commuting from Manchester getting a bit too much now?

One consolation will be the look on the sycophants faces when they realise their efforts were in vain.

If you really must know where he's been then I believe he's been on a NEBOSH course and A/L for the last few weeks. Anyone can get this info as there's a board behind where he sits, which tells you his whereabouts for the upcoming month. Hope this helps!

Thanks for letting us know, no-one tells us these things. WTLs eh? Or is it our manager/ acting?
