Hartlepool DO walked out today after management intimidation of a worker.
The worker concerned took a photograph of a manager trying to saw through the chain that was keeping the gates locked.
The photograph was taken from the public highway and the incident concerned was also on the public highway.
The rest of the office walked out at approx 8am.
Branch union officials negotiated with management with the following result
No action to be taken against the individual regarding the photograph,
Photographic guidelines to be advised,
Return to work tomorrow.
Because of the details that management have put onto the return to work the depot have agreed that the job will be done by RM rules.
i.e No coming in early
Weighing bags
Taking Meal Break
No Private Cars
Final agreement reached at approx 12:30 pm.

Hartlepool DO walked out today.
I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
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.

Brilliant, well done and doesn't it show all the rest of you that you CAN negotiate and not have to cave in? Managers get off on intimidating people but, just stand up to them, do your job exactly as RM outlines in your contracts, before, that is they change them all...... Bullies are really cowards remember!
