Be careful what you wish for....The new Business Plan likely will open the way for a Monday-Friday Firm delivery and a Tuesday-Saturday residential delivery (Still delivering a technical 6 day USO) resulting in 1/6 of our colleagues being shown the door on bog standard Compulsory Redundancy terms. Still if you've done 10 years you'll be OK.......I'm alright Jack is what made this country great didn't it................

Royal Mail haven't a f***ing clue what their next move is...that's obvious by the way they stumble from one crisis to another.
I bet you would struggle to name one thing senior management have got right in the last 10 years in terms of either long-term stability of the company OR service to customer....not one thing.

This opens up whole new avenues for insult. You sound like a right manager, you do TBT.
