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.

Confession time: When I was a student, back in the day, used to get dutch hash sent to my local PO poste restante. They never caught on. Surprised it would be handed to the police, you'd think would might as well just bin it?
