There really does not seem to be a corporate plan at all - managers being culled according to some and yet our office has had a list up for acting managers for the last 10 days................ :crazy:

TBH I think it will be all those useless hangers on in the NIMC that'll go, the DO managers mostly tend to be made up so they'll just end up back as posties again :Very Happy

If that remains the case then will their seniority count if they have to revert back.

Unless you have had issues with your managers (which i can well understand) i really dont like to hear about anyone being put out of a job. As Fish said the longer serving managers will cash in thier chips and go, and who can blame them.

I think for the ones who are left there will be more of a delivery aspect to the job towrds the end of the shift to cover sickness etc, so perhaps no going home at 9am on a sat :hmmmm
Rows of houses all bearing down on me........I can feel their blue hands touching me.......All these things in all positions.........All these things will one day take control..........

Have there been any mention of MC / DO closeures in Scotland to accompany this news ?.
Does the old rule of 1 manager per 30 employee`s still apply ?.

I would assume so but most of them haven't done a full delivery in years and it will kill them :neutral:
