Packets, packets and more bloody packets, add to that went to every house.

If Royal Mail cannot make a profit on that lot there is something very very wrong.

LOL mugs.
I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
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.

Like it's our fault you didn't have enough for us to do today, if they won't be paying o/t next week then I'll be cutting off, see how the dickheads like that!
That sounds like a shower of shite. Employment law doesnt quite work like that...
