P&M 2007 ended Job and knock - the words used where - "Work all paid hours" anyone who still has Job and Knock is extremely lucky.

Phase 3 – Transforming the way we work

Both parties are committed to introducing new ways of working throughout the business by April 2008. In order to achieve this there will be a trial in four offices per AGM area covering the following:

New arrangements to cover for one another and develop sensible options to absorb absences, and increased workload, where time exists within normal hours

To ensure all paid work hours are utilised

To creates a working environment where employees, CWU reps and managers feel valued and motivated.

Shouldn't that be the managers job? WTF are they doing?

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.
