Can't remember as I've been on leave the past 2 weeks. But if memory serves me right, they've built our entire meal relief into our pre-departing the office time. I just hope nobody works through this break so they can make the van on time. I know if they have done that I'll just walk off the shop floor for my break and if that means I'm late getting out, tough!! I'll either cut off or get the overtime. I'm not working for free.
What I'm really dreading is Saturdays from now on. Leaving the office 2 hours later than we're used to, no doubt MS3 will have to be taken from now on. Buggers up any chance of watching the early kick off game in the Premiership and doesn't leave you much time to get to your local teams match either. Are we allowed a life outside royal mule. Certainly doesn't seem that way the way things are going.

Well, nothing's been agreed about these later starts, but they've still come in. They are masters of moving the goal posts afterall.

Perhaps we wont have so many managers at our office now Fred,they should have enough problems at their own DO's to cope with........all we need to do now is get rid of the agency/casual staff.

Lets all try and keep our heads on Wednesday.......Managers will be on a mission to make life difficult for us and would love to stir things up,but in realality they are under pressure as well,from their bosses as well as the customers who want their mail.

We were clear on Thursday. Expecting a holocaust tomorrow though. Can only work to my time. Remeber folks, Royal Mail is duly obliged to have mail delivered by 2.00pm as per contract.
