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: Manager caught at customs
You can't.
He hasn't done anything "wrong"...legally.
And unless it makes the papers.
Grassing would only open you up to charges of making a malicious accusation.
good times, bad times you know I've had my share

There are better/safer ways to put information out there in the intertwitterfacebook world than using the grassing up method if you use your head is all i'm saying.
As for Wardy's comment...that's about as dumb as they come.
The union is going to need all the militant it can scrape together(which isn't much) in the next 18 months and he thinks we're too militant.
I nearly fell of my chair laughing at that one.

Re: Manager caught at customs
Dear Moya,
it has been brought to my attention that Mr. XXX a manger at XXXX has been caught at customs with a car full of duty free cigarettes. It is my understanding that he was hoping to resell them in the DO to make a profit.
Is this sort of behaviour acceptable to you?
Personally I agree with those that regard tax avoidance as morally repugnant.
Do you?
Yours Sincerely
CCR (G72)
Not looney. Not militant. Not malicious.

Re: Manager caught at customs
Dear Moya, that's an idea.
Fish tank you say there are other ways of getting information out there, could you elaborate this point?
Thanks.

Re: Manager caught at customs
The problem with the dear Moya thing is you can't expect them to investigate on the strength of one email,i would imagine they get loads of accusations per day about management and even if they do they are going to want real evidence,not hearsay and they are going to want name,rank and serial number.
To be honest,on the balance of risk against anything being done,bearing in mind that he hasn't broken the law or brought the company into disrepute the safe advice would be to drop it.
I know that's not popular with the loony militants but it's just a personal opinion.

Re: Manager caught at customs
Well if nothing else it is worth filing it away with names and dates, maybe I can use it in the future when he decides to aim his guns at me again.
We need to protect ourselves from personal victimisation any way we can.

Re: Manager caught at customs
Customs would of just given him a fine, taken the fags and tell him not to do it again. He's lucky he did'nt have his car confiscated as they have a habit of doing that at Dover. They will tag him and the car on their computer so next time he does go across the channel he will be pulled up and searched. I doubt RM will be interested.
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets
Illegitimi non carborundum
