Arnie,you have shot yourself in the foot by some of your posts,doing bits and bobs here and there is not a true reflection of how we work or how we are treated in the business.
I'm sure you've read through some of the posts on here and you have to understand the ill feeling towards Management and the Business as a whole,you yourself have been slagging off Al and Ad and are worried about your position being on here as well.
I'm interested in what you've got to say but perhaps in your field,as non ops Management don't have a clue about the day to day life as a Postie.
Am also interested in this comment,can you elaborate!!

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.

Since you obviously think the opinion of anyone who uses their brains instead of their arms is worthless, I see no point discussing anything with you - I'll just get a bunch of mis-spelt incoherent crap back.
You call us "Screws" as if it is a Prison. It's not that bad - you could always go and get out if you wanted. Prisoners don't have that option. I tried to offer a slightly differing opinion and just got called a Pint Of Piss. Charming.
Is it any wonder, with that attitude, some very high up people may think so little of some posties?

JUST FOR YOU ARNIE OLD BEAN...

Answer to MR Coventry..
I DONT GIVE A FLYING MONKEYS ARSE HOW SENIOR MANAGEMENT SEE ME??? Even if they did give a shite in the first place which is highly likely!!! THEY have brought this all on themselves... The judgement or morals of Posties and screws are all for there own merits... Yes i applaud you for not crossing a picket and not bowing to RM and there judgemental ways but You cant give half a story and let people on here make up there own minds about your posts and then claim something else and how hard done by you have been treated... You knew coming on here was an issue and to give your point of view was the same as all of us 77% who voted for strike and every WTL and HYS in the past have been treated 100 times worse by RM... Now you and the screws expect us to behave and talk like gents and give you the time of day??? BOLLOX SORRY TIME FOR TALKING IS OVER... IM GOING ON STRIKE OVER THE ISSUES THAT RM HAVE PUT UPON US!!! THE WORKERS WHO HAVE BEEN TRAINED!!!
There is action and then a reaction.. This is what RM have brought us to. OUR REACTION.... = STRIKE!!!!

If you had been on here for some time you would know that Tommo has his own style and views about
managers - as do some others.
But perhaps you provoke these reactions by saying our jobs could be done by 'untrained monkeys'.
That is the attitude that has been taken by senior managers for a few years now.
They brought in people on part time and temporary contracts, and casuals, and agency staff
with little or no training and told us that they were as productive as the trained staff.
Now they tell us we are 40% less productive than the competitors - so who's fault is that?

well i think i have hit a raw nerve here with this topic. ofcouse we need to change but as most of you have said it needs to be a fair playing field why should we have go 2 miles down a country lane with one piece of rebate oh sorry mailsort while competition just pass it on to us after collecting an artic full from one firm.. postcomm need to wake up and realise that they are destroying the best postal service in the world and all under the guise of fair competition and they are failing right from the start cos its not fair. make the other companies have a universal licence to go to every household once a day they will soon fu*k off back to germany when they have to go down country lanes with junk mail, cos they wont make any money either..
oh and a scab is a scab we are fighting for one cause and thats our jobs and our future cant you see that!!!i dont want to lose money like any one else but i am prepared to stand up for what i think is right and not just bend over and be fu*ked up the arse by those two fu*kwits who at the end of the day when they have ruined royal mail they will move on to their next venture and do the same.lets hope its tnt or securicor. :lfo :cfo
if you dont want to be called a scab then stand up for whats right like the rest of us.
i think we need an emoticon of a scab!!!!
