Re: something to remember ?
brilliant and piss off all our customers so they use the alternatives of which there are many
This is not 1986 - we are not the only people around anymore
other can and will take our business if we don't do it
we need to get sensible - work properly YES - refuse overtime in the busiest time of the year ( hurting no-one but our customers) because in the summer when volumes were light ( and they are lighter than i have ever known - packets excluded) complete madness
get smart and get smart NOW
Do your job properly everyone
come in on your time - not early because you want a parking space/to prep slower/to have an easier day
take your breaks - before they are taken from you
stop running/rushing around - stop working for free
protect your jobs - protect everyone's jobs
do your job correctly and give the best service you can to our customers
Maybe then we will keep them
If you think I am talking s**t - I ordered 2 things last night online
they both arrived today - on a Sunday
We need to change and wise up quick
It won't matter if we 'beat' the management if there is no company left

Re: something to remember ?
Whatever the reason, it is our right to refuse overtime. Management should be able to plan based on how many people are willing to do overtime. If they dont have enough people employed we shouldnt be carrying that burden. Its about PLANNING something which RM management seem incapable of.we need to get sensible - work properly YES - refuse overtime in the busiest time of the year ( hurting no-one but our customers) because in the summer when volumes were light ( and they are lighter than i have ever known - packets excluded) complete madness

Re: something to remember ?

I can't talk for all offices obviously because I don't work there
but it is light very light
why would we try to hurt the business that pays our wages at Xmas??? Madness complete madness

Re: something to remember ?
feduppostie our office hasn't had much overtime,but theres a few who has had between say an hour to 4 hours in a week and some staff have worked there day off if they have had no overtime which is fair enough ,but guess what say somebody worked 4 hours ot they open there wageslip and hey presto they have only been paid for an hour work instead of 4 .Others who have worked there day off ,haven't even been paid,so why the hell should we do management a favour when THEY need it most in busy winter months,theres to many for the want of a better word corrupt managers out there,hey fiddle the figures and they get there nice bonus,do you understand.feduppostie wrote:can anyone say they have in all honesty been refused overtime when working at full capacity lately??

If you are made up to full time hours for the xmas pressure, you should receive the full £200.norm wrote:Is the bonus at xmas based off hours worked?
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.
