To be eligible for ColleagueShares you have to be permanent (or have a continuous long-term temporary contract), have been employed in the UK on 17 May
2007 (the issue date), and not be on a career break or extended period of unpaid absence.

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.

Yes as far as I can the shares have already been issued so if you have them then they should pay them out even if you are off sick.

The orginal booklet explaining the ins and out can be viewed on RMs own FTP library at ftp://ftp.royalmail.com/Downloads/publi ... ochure.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

f***ing hopeless in it , kinda like working alongside zombies. Do you let them eat each others ankles ? or point out that might not be in their best interests. After 10 years of trying ,I'm leaning towards a laissez faire approach :chuckle
