Your grievances are pretty much that you live to far from the Office and the commute takes too long.... Only 1 person who can sort that out. :Boo hoo!

It would be interesting to know...

A) Why "Then travel expenses were withdrawn unilaterally" was allowed to stand.

B) Why "I managed to achieve a transfer back to Portsmouth (in April 2010) but at 6.00 on the Monday when I was due to start back, I was phoned and told to come back into Bognor for 'another 3 or 4 weeks'. I am still there" was allowed to happen.

C) How long you have been in the job?

D) What is your parent office?

E) Are you a union member/what are the union doing about it?

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.

My two posts were sarcasm, not pointless. What are these grievances ? Why should anyone on here have to follow a link to see what the poster is on about ? :crazy:

Damn it !! I couldn`t resist clicking on the link. His cv makes no mention of working for RM, although he has been on many tv quiz shows.
In my humble opinion full of his own self importance. I`m just glad I`m writing this in RM`s time (as I was on a flyer again today) :nana .

I still don't get how this is still going on...
Two of us were sent down from Portsmouth to Bognor, temporarily, and we were paid travel expenses. My colleague was eventually sent back to Portsmouth while I was told to stay.

Then travel expenses were withdrawn unilaterally.

I managed to achieve a transfer back to Portsmouth (in April 2010) but at 6.00 on the Monday when I was due to start back, I was phoned and told to come back into Bognor for 'another 3 or 4 weeks'. I am still there.

I lose about 3 hours each day commuting to Bognor, and then have to do about 6 hours work per week purely to pay for the fares to get me there. When I started writing this in July 2012, I had already lost about £ 4000 (four thousand pounds) in fares.

The Portsmouth office is about 15 minutes walk from where I live by Southsea Common.
