Depends on when you call in sick, if you told them saturday you wouldn't be in, then you were sick on the bank holiday so it will count towards total days off, if you called for first time on tuesday morning it won't as you were not sick monday and available for work

Or the other way,if you phoned in on the Sat to tell them you are available for work then the Sun and Mon do not count.

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.
