Royal Mail bankrupt by February

[pickaname]

Everyone in our office was called to a huddle this morning.

Management told us explicitly that urgent savings had to be made immediately. Failure to make sufficient savings by February would result in staff not being paid as there would be no money to do so as Royal Mail faces insovency.

It was stressed that this was a national brief and not a local issue.

Did anyone else have this brief?

Er no

I refer the right honorable gentleman to the truth spoken on the subject some days ago

Ask him to put in writing so you can hand it to the press, see what he does then.

I'd have asked when the managers are going

Got a text today telling us that Portsmouth mail centre had the same brief today, 44,000 hours need to be saved by December or no pay by March next year, the Privatization propaganda begins

If Royal Mail is in such a dire financial position why did they pay that little bald f****r to stand and watch me sort flats for over 2 hours on Wednesday?
I was almost intimidated by him.
When they get rid of the deadwood known as line managers then I might start believing the apocryphal tales.

So what's the difference between now and several years ago when we where losing £1million per day who paid the wages then?



PS. £400million profit last year, big management bonuses because of that figure so where has it gone?
plus Who is going to buy a bankrupt company that is continuing to lose business and money, if they want it then they could get the whole thing for £10 from the receivers by the middle of next year

No wonder they have no money buying all these Combo Vans, HC Trolleys and new uniform, Hope they stil got my money for my shares...So if they have no money how are they going to pay us for accepting the revision and the walk sequence dosh..... Bring it back work your hours...

i did 2000 by next year. Although they said they would be "managers that are surplus to requirements like HR". We all laughed...
