Re: Transfer requests
All I can say is good luck, royal fail have continually screwed me over with trying to get a transfer. I decided a couple of weeks ago that after a month off with stress (when your wife and home are over 200 miles from where you work, essentially stranded in a job you now hate, can you blame me?) the best thing to do would be to jack this s**t excuse of a job in and leave with what dignity they haven't fleeced off me!

How many managers does it take to change a lightbulb?
Seven, one to tell someone to change it and the rest to throw sh!t at each other and play with the tyre swing.

Re: Transfer requests
I've been waiting for over 3 yrs I've tried everything believe me. It's like hitting your head against a brick wall I've pretty much given up hope. It's a magic roundabout of bullshit. 3 offices I've put down all had vacancies. Get told sorry due to revisions we may lose the vacancies. After revision still vacancies. Oh sorry we can't take anyone due to the mtsf and people may be offered those vacancies. even tho they have had vacancies for over 2 years with the same agency staff doing them. Now they are offering the vacancies out on 9 month contracts to outsiders. It's frustrating to say the least. After 23 years in job they fob you off.

Re: Transfer requests
When i was enquiring about a transfer i was told by my manager it would only be possible if i accepted part time hours
my union rep supported that claim, although i was advised on here that that was complete bollocks, if i transferred, i keep my hours !

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.

Re: Transfer requests
Not sure if i understand u correctly, but i was under the impression if for example you were a full time postman on 39 hours a week, and wanted a transfer to "North-West office", u could only get that transfer when someone with that position/hours left and made a spot for u.POSTMAN wrote:BettySwollocks wrote:When i was enquiring about a transfer i was told by my manager it would only be possible if i accepted part time hours![]()

i was informed by manager and union rep, that regardless of that, i would have to accept part time hours, (i was informed here that that is wrong info,)
Erm ... Well its it's my username !?PS:I know your name's Betty.
