job swaps

Post by robshipman »

Can anybody tell me if there is a job swap scheme in place in Royal Mail? I need to swap a full time position in south Manchester for one in north Manchester as the fuel costs are crippling me. Rob.

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.

Just go there and ask the DOM to check if there is anyone who live in opposite side of you and do same job.
