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: Un-ballotted industrial action Wimbledon Delivery Office
Since when?We are now utilising managers
Is this because we're new and shiny privatised,next thing you know they'll be fully utilising managers...or is that taking it too far?
good times, bad times you know I've had my share

Two drivers from Wimbledon one with 18 years another with over 20 years were sacked today for allegedly leaving two packets on the drivers seat in a LOCKED van. FACT! All of south London could follow if this decision is not overturned. I truly hope common sense prevails.

Re: Un-ballotted industrial action Wimbledon Delivery Office
2nd office in less than a week. As many of us predicted this will be happening more and more in delivery offices as we are on the brink with horrendous management & workload. Dave and billy should be paying close attention when negotiating delivery issues! hope these boys get their jobs back.

Re: Un-ballotted industrial action Wimbledon Delivery Office
Do the Management really expect nothing to happen when there is a clear miscarriage of justice, if the fact as stated a locked van parcel in front seat, officially packet should be in the back to be taken out one by one, however the reaction of the Managment is a bit extreme and very stupid to sack them provoking the reaction you would get. even more case for doing the job exactly by the book.
Hope these guys get their job back, it will be a nightmare for them especially just before Christmas.

Not true,not now anyway.
You know that thing with the bundle in the front that keeps changing.
It changed again.
• Secure the MB44 pouch to the front passenger seat and ensure the pouch flap remains closed at all times when the vehicle is moving Only leave an MB44 pouch containing mail in the cab of an unattended vehicle for NO longer than 10 minutes. Every effort should be made to make this occurrence an exception and not the norm
good times, bad times you know I've had my share
