Ah that is the same as me... On the uniform front I'm not allowed uniform until 3 months in. Although some of the new fulltimers have allowance. I havent tried asking anyone about uniform yet but if you ask someone nicely im sure someone could sort uniform out

He knew what you meant,he's being him tonight.

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.

Ah well it's horses for courses really - had you been a bloke you'd probably still have been on 25 hrs with the worst delivery in the office and left to your own devices and had you been dopey to boot you'd have been in the managers office - still equality rules as they say.
