Just scroll down to the Culling = Arguments thread because that is what you are going to be up against



Im not against anyone trying to better themselves. Im just surmising that management is a lot more stress than it used to be. It used to be quite a cushy number; but now the company is privatised they are accountable for everything. I think you've got to WANT to be a manager though, not do it, because its more money or because someone else is doing it

Speak to your DOM or a line manager. They may start off by using you as day off cover which is a good first step and you can see what you think of it before embarking on management course etc. Ignore the comments about losing all your friends in RM, just treat people as you would like to be treated yourself and you cannot go far wrong. Respect is a two way thing, you have to give some to warrant getting some back. As someone on here mentioned you have to pay your mortgage etc and unless the negative ones on here intend helping you pay it maybe they are best ignored - do what is right for YOU.

Elias is right, not all managers are bastards, I have friends who are managers and they do a better job than our union reps. It is not a crime to better your self, why do people go on the CWU executive. They do it to improve their lifestyle and their families. Go for it and keep your feet in the ground. As I said no need to be a bastard just because you are a manager, your job is a lot easier by treating people with respect.

I wonder why managers do not get that.

Acting linos here have been on a promise to be made full time for years - still on 24hr contracts. Suckers.

You quote ,. I bet you do. In todays workplace the manager cant be mates with the same lads they are shitting on/harassing/bullying. You are obviously one of the golden ones.
You quote[treating people with respect] you may be having your bollocks tickled as you are MATES, im sure many in your office will beg to differ
