Welcome DOMS. 
I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
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.

Re: now a rep help
It's not a good idea to let your DOMs find out who you are on here, as they'll often try to find something you've posted, to use against you. Particularly if your a Rep, who's standing up to them. But there's nothing stopping Reps PMing Mrdeeds, rather than posting on the Forum. That's no doubt why Mrdeeds wants to PM for advice on anything which could "out" her. Although hopefully, he'll post any useful info on the Forum too, but just minus the specifics, which could identify her. Because this sort of info, has been incredibly helpful to many of us, over the years.

Re: now a rep help
On his Diversity Training my oppo, an old squaddie, had to provide all the "Wrong ways to address someone......" examples. I think the Female Trainer wished she'd never asked him.
She'd never been so embarressed in her life as most of the examples were actually physically impossible! 
Like all Wage Slaves, he had two crosses to bear: The people he worked for and the people he worked with! (Stephen Vizinczey.)
