our WTL for the last 16 weeks has consisted of;
Do you know what you are striking for?? :d'oh! :d'oh!
Do you know how much pay you will loose?? :d'oh! :d'oh!
Do you realise that the customers will be upset?? :d'oh! :d'oh!
However the last one was slightly different and went something along the lines of;
Hello boys and girls I know that I'm wasting my FFFing time and yours so do you really want to hear the same old FFing shite again?? to which the reply was we don,t mind actually as it means were doing a bit less work and can sit in the canteen and have a drink for 1/2 hr :funneh :funneh
Our new local manager is not actually a bad bloke and just wants to get on with the job, it a shame that the w@@kers above him won't let him. :Very Happy

I have only been to one WTL -when you are TOLD to go up for your WTL just take no notice and don't go-I have dodged 2 now --Harassment is saying things that an individual finds offensive or does not like-LETS GET TOGETHER AND GET RID OF work time learning.The only good thing to come from it in our office(from what I hear)is that royal mail are losing the battle but would rather throw money down the drain than admit they have made a massive mistake in sacking an excellent postman and colleague. REFUSE TO BE INDOCTRANATED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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.

FIRE ALARM PRACTICE TUESDAY

Post by TrueBlueTerrier »

WTL was to tell us how the new walks are progressing - and how that even though we don't need the 6 nights (42hrs a night) they are asking 4 or 5 OPGs to come in 1 - 2 hrs in each section (5 sections) early to do the sorting :crazy:

Weasel also mentioned that he had seen a TNT postman last Saturday :shock:

Then just as it was finishing we had a fire practice.

No-one seems to get the same info in their WTL&L session!!! :roll:

WTLL

Post by postiebob »

Read with interest about WTLL, I have never actually been given this face to face, there was a time when I was given a bit of paper with information on it but mine was about deliveries and I work for distribution and just didn't concern me. Do you really think they are usefull? or is it just another way of saying there keeping us informed, because I don't.
