Badly trained managers

[mark21]

What are you experiences of Royal Mail managers.

Our stand in manager, has lost 5 specials so far this year, he is unable accesss the computer. He couldn't get an annual holiday sheet off the computer.

When he is out on delivery he is even worse. He covered my walk on my day off, the result was mail left on top of my frame and misdelivered three items.

He is well known for misdelivering mail within our office! (poor lad)

Stories please!!!!

we had one used to be a postman in our office thought he was the dogs bollox went on a course they filled his head with bullshit

he was the worst postman in the office always last out would book evey scrap of overtime he could the complaints about mis delivery went through the roof when he was on a walk now hes a doms officeboy somewhere else and when his dom is on holiday he always phones our office for advice on how to get this and that of the computer or hes asking our dom to send him stuff over as he cant find it

i have always said this failed postman make great managers

Our old DUM had these fantastic magic sacks that when covered mail it disappeared until the next day.
We also had a woman stand in who really fancied herself and was always the big i am. (and believe me she was big)!! Anyway we always cut off the sorting at 5.45 irrespective of what was left. We knew the time was coming when they wanted to change that so we were ready. At 5.45 one morning she announced that anyone who came off the sorting would have their pay stopped. At that very moment she said that every single postman/woman walked off got their coats and walked out. She s**t herself and believe me we were not out for long.
There was one morning i was curling one in the lav i came out and everyone had walked out after she had upset them again that was sureal one minute radio going banter next complete silence and me the only postman in the building that soon changed.

Jesus i have so many i will not bore you but maybe i should write a bookon them

You should write that book, and you're definitely not boring us.

Due to Diversity I wont name names..

Right Back in my old DO a screw that thought he was the mutts nutts had it in for a mate of mine.... Lets call him BILL... So one day our screw after the GP delivery gets in a motor and goes round to my mates house and waits for Bill to go home for extra meal relief. And then back to the DO for his real MR... So up the screw goes with another screw.. Knocks on Bills door and as Bill opens it, Screw goes. "RIGHT BILL WE'V CAUGHT YA.. BANG TO RIGHTS.. GET BACK TO THE OFFICE AND ON THE SORTING, ITS AFTER 10:30 AND YOUR BEING DONE FOR NOT BEING AT YOUR POINT OF DUTY..... AND GOING HOME IN BETWEEN DELIVERYS... IVE GOT YA." Bill then tells the stupid screws. "feck off you bastards im on my rest day and ive not been in to work today, now piss off." "I will see you tomorrow 0530 with my Union Rep... Now feck off." (being held back by his mrs)

The Next day we are all in work.. 0530 and Bill comes in Union Rep with him.. Storms in the offfice and rips into the DOM and screws... WE ALL WALK OUT... TA TA!!!

So screws then get a bollocking but we are out.. Down comes the SOM and asks us back in and no more will be done.. (no monies stopped) we say NO! we want the screw gone, for A H&B issue and HE is bang to rights!!! SOM says no and says SCREW will say sorry he will never do it again.... ahhhhhhhh!!

Bill comes out and asks us to come back in but thanks us.... So all back in and SCREW has H&B case.. YEP... all swept under the carpet..... Then gets moved on to another office as a DOM!!! HE GETS A PROMOTION!!!!! FECKING BASTARDS!!! H&B Someone and then gets a pat on the back and a promotion..... Just goes to show ROYAL MAILS DIVERSITY WORKING AGAIN......

Still waiting for my apology off LM after winning the B & H case against him. I know its not going to happen they are only interested when its postie against postie. Even the union rep that was on the case with me knows its not going to happen. Hes had enough and leaves 2morrow anyway.

Our current DUM lost a bag of registered letters when he was a postman, and the DUM we had at the time covered for him, so he's got a clear record. The last DUM gave up after a few weeks because he was absolutey crap at the job. The DUM before him had to be sent on a course after losing it with a postwoman over the telephone. He was moved here from his last office for bullying and continues to be a bully. Bloody big baby when things don't go his way. We've got an acting screw who is a known liar. Another one used to log onto the computer and change the overtime duties so as he and his mates could have easy walks when he knew he was nor screwing the following week. They had to change the password. He also showed his mates some confidential statements which people had made after a fight in our office. He also held onto overtime when people phoned in so as he could do the walk instead of getting a posie to do it. They're all still around, so Royal Mail must be satisfied with this standard.
