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.

We are sorry, but Royal Mail Group's cycle2work scheme is temporarily closed.

The scheme will remain closed whilst we understand current HMRC developments.

If you would like Halfords to contact you when the scheme has reopened please click Register Your Interest.
