line manager & dom bonuses?

Post by halfull »

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! :confused

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.

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.

I very much doubt that is true lol

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.

Yeah, like i said, it's probably a myth,
what kinda bonus's could a mail centre manager get if that was the case ? could probably retire after a year.

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.

Yep, agree Postman. s**t really does roll down hill and we just get the turd at the end.

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