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.

You are right about AL,it happend to me.but i can't remember where it is written down.I will try to find out,i think it is in the Way Forward,you could ring the advise and support at Sheffield who should know the answer. your Rep should know the number and he may be able to find out about the AL.

It is the Way Forward...
All periods of service on a temporary or permanent contract (with periods of casual service included only if they run continuously into a temporary or permanent contract), except for those on unpaid leave, SPPR, or with HM Forces exceeding 15 days, will count towards calculating leave due. Previous periods of PO service may be counted for this purpose.

On entry = Four and a half weeks.
After 5 years = Four weeks 3.5 days.
After 15 years = Five weeks 1 day.
After 20 years = six weeks.
