I would ignore it if it came to me.f**k 'em

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.

It's just the RM `standard` letter which is showing you how concerned they are and how they can help you back to work ;liar ;liar .
Royal Mail managers.....about as popular as a t.urd in a swimming pool!
The DDA/Equality Act demands action,NOT words......adjustments NOT Occupational Health referrals.Case No:2505901/09
Royal Mail is an Equal Opportunities Employer..It discriminates against everybody.

Pathetic harrassment is all it is,Go back to work on monday,Refuse to have an interview (Unless you are due a stage warning) Have the return to work and tell them you had been in contact and if the manager harrasses you again you will be putting a grievance in.
They make my blood boil.
