Bath sorting office xmas jobs withdrawn

Post by modabistick »

Due for interview/registration on Monday, received email yesterday stating:
"...unfortunately there has been a change of plan and jobs which were advertised for Bath, have been withdrawn.
However there are some job opportunities at Bristol Outhouse, Unit 5, Patchway Trading Estate, Britannia Road, Patchway, Bristol, BS34 5TA."

Boo.

Would have been my fifth year and could of done with the cash.

Around 60 temporary Christmas jobs have been cut by Royal Mail.

Bath Sorting Office had advertised for additional casual staff to help with the increase in post over the festive period.

However, the company has withdrawn the positions from the city's sorting office and transferred some of the vacancies to Bristol.

Jobseekers who had applied for the positions and had been called for interview next Monday, were sent an email last week telling them of the change.

Royal Mail spokesman Adrian Booth said: "Following a review of our operational needs over the festive period, it has been decided to switch resourcing needs to the Bristol area.

"Candidates who applied for vacancies in Bath were immediately notified and they have been offered the opportunity to apply for a role in Bristol instead."

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.
