No they have no heart and you are probably looking at a reduction of 5 or 6 full time jobs.

Chin Up mate,they intended to cut 331 hours from here,but thanks in large part to the actions of the majority,doing the job properly,they have had to hire 4 vans and 2 people carriers now!!!,and it remains to be seen if they can get 331 hours out of here.
The more you know, the worse it gets.

Only last month our delivery manager agreed that what our office needs is re-investment of hours not reduction.

Wait until they start on out office. All those car users and assorted idiots giving Royal Mail at least half an hour unpaid overtime a day (that's three weeks work, or 120 hours, for no wages over twelve months). There will be weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth, but they'll all just come in even earlier and take out more bags in their cars to dig Royal Mail out. They're good like that, these charity workers.

wouldn't it be terrible if someone accidentally arranged for an R.T.A to occur involving one of these knobs..his insurance would be void..no payout..no car..no job either by the time he got out of pokey...

I really hope one of their cars get screwed. I'd laugh like a horse.
