They normally quote a "Break in Service" as the reason for losing Seniority. To be honest it doesn't really make much difference to you nowadays. You're still likely to be pushed to one side or ignored, regardless of your Seniority. It seems it depends more on whether or not the manager likes you! :no no Favouritism seems to be the flavour of the day! :no no

Were you in the CWU before? Perhaps sign up again and ask the Rep to get involved. Are these vacancies still available? If they are I can't see why they wouldn't let you apply for them, whatever seniority you have! :hmmmm I presume there's a couple of more senior people going for the job as well. Well good Luck.

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.

With that standard of spelling mate I am amazed they gave you a job in the first place.

Not really called for mate and not really in the spirit of RMC.

Perhaps a review of your own posts may also bring to light some Grammatical and Spelling errors. (No that's not an invite for others)
