If an executive from Amazon had flushed Brydon' s head down the loo, filmed it and posted it on youtube - then we might be talking about bullying.

You should have been at the AGM:
The AGM lasted for about an hour and around 100 shareholders were in attendance - fewer than Royal Mail had been expecting. Donald Brydon, the Chairman of Royal Mail, opened the meeting making some brief remarks on the last financial year,
Donald Brydon then opened up the floor to questions,
Donald Brydon responded to most of the questions,
Three CWU representatives asked questions on behalf of the union.
Firstly, whether the board would apply for a judicial review of Ofcom should it fail to act on competition; Donald Brydon said that Royal Mail needed to find out how Ofcom are going to respond before deciding what to do.
Secondly, whether the board had considered the recommendations of the High Pay Commission in setting executive remuneration; Donald Brydon said that they had considered these both in setting pay and in disclosing full details of executive remuneration in their accounts.
Thirdly, whether Royal Mail was committed to agreeing a company charter, as set out in the Agenda for Growth; Donald Brydon reaffirmed Royal Mail's commitment to this and stated that while some practical work had taken precedence over this recently, they did intend to have it agreed before the AGM next year.

The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Why don't Amazon buy a majority stake in RM and be done with it already.

DTN will be seen as a 'major/latest/this'll save' us tool by the chair spinners. - As it has now been 'agreed' by the union (pah) more and more pressure will be placed on it.
Conduct code for DTN failure ? - It'sa coming.

Maybe I'm getting old.. but what's all the fuss about 24hr delivery, obviously there are going to SOME important items requiring next day delivery, but why does everyone seem to need everything now, this minute. There is no real need for 95% of stuff to be delivered next day, most people start ordering for christmas in november and they still start panicking when it a day late. Unbelievable!
