Must be Guvnors without a proper job to do. Plenty at our place, including acting. I think they are all on "Special Projects" :crazy:

Or staff that had gotten their EVR offer yet but hadn't taken it up yet. Or the paperwork hadn't gotten through. I've seen it take months.

I was on 'light duties' for a long whiles, but turned out to be not so light as I had expected it to be. Funny, but a lot of peeps have also come to that same conclusion.

If anyone understands pay grades, then here's your chance to lay your expetise over this little lot...

We posties do things differently, but we still get shot at!

Our (other) men and women deserve a little more... http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/

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.

too much support for seniority, not enough anti-guvnor and anti-acting (whose side are they on anyway, why are they allowed to stay in CWU etc :evil/mad ), not enough how stupid are customers are and how bad they treat us (ALWAYS nosing, but wouldn't notice a rape or armed blag under there noses)but other than that a great place :Very Happy :Very Happy :Very Happy
