How dare you..........the film had Casper Van Dein in it and he's brilliant.........when I say brilliant, I mean ok, when I say ok I mean I'd rather poke my eyes out with someones puss filled fingers before shoving them up my nose and all while getting hit in the nuts with an anvil while listening to the Cheeky Girls on repeat...........although I did enjoy Python

We are the posties, tired and pale
..Six days a week, without fail
...Many hours a day, no fun
..Rain, snow, storms and sun
Seventh day, thank you Royal Mail

In the good old days i used to get the dom to agree booking extra 2 hours for every 4 worked he wasnt very keen but like i said to him "Do you want them clearing or not"doubt you would get away with that in this present day at RM "WE LOVE PARCELS"but not enough to pay double time simples let them deliver them moneys not everything and they cant book O/T coz there "SALARIED".
Just a point to make, Sunday working is voluntary. You cannot be forced into sunday working unless employee and employer both agree to it, or it is included in your contract of employment . If sunday working is brought in then you can opt out of sunday working

you can only opt out if you work in a retail shop or a betting shop in some circumstances, as long as royal mail give appropriate notice to change your working hours they can change it, they would possibly have a fight with the union, but seeing as it would either possibly safe guard existing jobs or possibly increase the staff head count i dont think the union would be fighting too hard against it

Because it's the law, you have a legal right to opt out from Sunday working in a retail shop or betting shop in some instances

bull if you want a job you do what they say
No because you can take them to a tribunal if your forced to work sundays, you cannot be sacked or disciplined for refusing to work Sundays in an occupation that you have a legal opt out for
