The reason the Master Race(The Scottish) get an extra day off at New Year is because we need more time to recover.We actually celebrate New Year unlike the rest of the UK. :nana

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.

I just wonder whether I am now owed 2 days leave or something like that - 1 for the 27th of Dec and 1 for having annual leave that falls on a bank holiday.

Our rep does not know what is going on (Manuel - I know nothing but he is not from Barcelona... he he he)

Any ideas?

You wont get any credit for 25 Dec as it was a Non service day rather than a Public Holiday - However you will get 1 day each for Monday 27 Dec and Tomorrow as they are statutory days.
