line manager & dom bonuses?
i was wondering if anybody knew if line managers & dom's get bonuses for saving hours in a delivery office? because there is alot of pressure from management at the moment if you want to book overtime for going over your finish time!

Re: line manager & dom bonuses?
no doubt there will be a bonus available if an office is being run within or under budget, along with additional regional premiums for the most bullying manager etc.

Re: line manager & dom bonuses?
I'm not sure if it's true, it is probably a myth,
but i heard managers get 50% of any savings they make, RM get the other 50%
i know for a fact, the manager at my DO, has received an annual bonus for at least the past 2 years, one of approx' 4k, last years was around 6k.

Re: line manager & dom bonuses?
I very much doubt that is true lolbut i heard managers get 50% of any savings they make, RM get the other 50%
Last time a manager spoke on here the max they could get was 10% of their annual salary.
Don't want to stick up for screws but being as they are so scared of their own shadows the reason they are forcing s**t in would be because they are bullied into doing it by 'their' managers.
The old do it or else speech.
Obviously some of them get off on it anyway.

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.

This is rubbish at it best, I got around £1000 last year and we were underspent. We are already over a £100,000 overspent due to Xmas and snow. I will be lucky to buy a pint of John Smiths with next years bonus. Also the max is around £2,200 for hitting all targets.

From another link from the whatbolloxtheyknow thingy...

In response to your second question, information regarding late walks is recorded each
day. This enables our Customer Services team to provide up to date information
concerning late delivery to an individual area.

Also as you say, for some they are not bullied into bullying, it's their hobby.
