Been doing that in our office for months, also taking photos of packet frame with all the empty bags taken off, but the best one is managers taking photos of other managers talking to posties to show that there is communication between the two groups.

What! Why doesn't he just photocopy the signing in sheets and send them in to his boss.. or does he want "instant" proof!? They're taking the P!55 now aren't they?

Do they take photographs of themselves taking photographs in front of a mirror, so they can send those to the DSM too?wheresourmoney wrote:Been doing that in our office for months, also taking photos of packet frame with all the empty bags taken off, but the best one is managers taking photos of other managers talking to posties to show that there is communication between the two groups.

Re: just when you think........
This is a joke surely, whats stopping managers from putting all remaining items in a different place and taking a photo of an empty ips frame and then putting them back after? This is a new kind of pathetic from RM

Or sticking them in a lorry and taking them for a ride when the "top brass" are down for a visit, bringing them back when they're all gone... it's happened in a few offices I bet

...Or tell the staff on a horrendous day that all mail has to go out cos management are coming, but to just bring back whatever is left later.wabbithunta wrote:Or sticking them in a lorry and taking them for a ride when the "top brass" are down for a visit, bringing them back when they're all gone... it's happened in a few offices I bet
The area manager saw a clear office, one walk alone brought back 8 bags later on.

Re: just when you think........
I bet they crapped themselves at Christmas then.. it was total chaos in our office. Yorks of packets everywhere, and management decided to pay a "visit". About 15 yorks loaded onto a lorry and then sent out for a ride for the day. And all because of a lack of staff to deliver them and not enough hours available either, this included managers going out on deliveries too!
