You are right there my friend,our loading docks were rammo this morning when i went in,last nights despatch was still there in loads of yorks and of course the do's are out today so all their work was there as well in yorks,which means now yorks are as rare as rocking horse poo at the moment.It was a pleasure to leave the office at 1pm today know it'll be chaos for at least another 24 hours.

I'll hold my hand up and say i did'nt think staggering the strikes like this would cause so much havoc,we really need to get more casuals not to cross the picket lines on strike days,we did manage to get asome to turn away last week.

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.
