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.

No you should be fine as long as you tell a manager before you go out. (13 years you already know this :d'oh! )

No we stopped ours when the revision started.

I think you need to give it a go before you refuse and if you go over on the first day book it and then refuse on the second. Then at least you have tried.
