We keep hearing that but I have yet to see one go.

To many. When I started we had 110 staff and 2 managers. After the redundancies next March, we will have 69 staff and 3 managers.
Let's face it, they get in the way. Show us the mail they want delivering and just let us deliver it. You don't need a degree for that.
