Is that shorthand or another language?

My badge expired in september and now i'm embarrassed to show it at makro because they ask if I still worked at rm and why hasn't it been updated.

Like everything else - bad management - too busy playing on their pc's all day :cuppa
Why are lino's paid full-time ??

And there was me thinking Royal Mail and their employees were against discrimination.

Slating someone for the way they write or spell is out of order and to actually state Royal Mail have lowered standards by allowing someone like Lazycarton to work for them is beyond belief.

Equality !!!

Oh and it took management 4 years to replace my expired ID badge.
