Was you short,or is that your normal pay.
Please enlighten us on how many hrs you're contracted for.

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.

Mate of mine got made redundant,managed to get a job in Tescos on a 30hr contract.
Ok not good but 30hrs in a warm (unless you work on the chilled section) building or the s**t our part timers have to put up with i know what i would go for.
Food (Pardon the pun) for thought for some of you part timers.

Is that your idea of a chat up line?
Any cake today?
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

We have two Tescos, a Morrisons, two Asdas, Sainsburys, Wickes, B&Q, I'm going to write to them all when I retire from Royal Mail next year, oh about June time, so I can keep working..................... it's a pity Wickes and B&Q don't have a lingerie department :sad: :chuckle

tesco pay just above minimum wage, new employees have statutary sick pay,usdaw the shopworkers union don,t have a lot of influence, tesco managers don,t take prisoners,sunday work time + 1/2. and thats if you get in,my sons shop has just laid off all short term contracts. and tesco,s are percieved to be best employers in retail.postman/woman have fought for good terms + conditions over many years, i think we will come to realise what we had over the coming years

No but B&Q have a 20% discount card... although I know that they're not really taking on at the moment because they're looking to get rid of staff too.
Does this rag smell of chloroform to you?
