Totally agree about the overtime,if i didn't have young kids i'd be inclined to give it a miss this year too. We were asked to go down to Dunfermline today and told if we didn't we probably wouldn't get any other overtime until your office is out of the mire,although the manager was at pains to point out that this wasn't blackmail!cow post wrote:Not sure which offices will be helping out...all i know is not many people in our office are helping out this xmas...everyone has had enough of the snow, the backlog of mail, and to top it off the dom stating that he doesn't think some posties are going that extra mile.
I've worked o/t every xmas since i started royal mail (11 years ago) and this year morale in the office and everything else on top of it has put alot of people off doing o/t.
Most of us declined this blackmail,sorry.....offer,so it could be a barren Xmas anyway!Good luck with those 180 yorkies of packets though!
