It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Lost ours in May as well - although they started moving them from nights in January I think. But they are still asking people to come in early and do what nights used to do. :shock: :crazy:

nights have been going for a while now in delivery offices and there will only be a few exeptions where night duties are kept.

just a thought though what happens to those who have yet to be taken off nights if royal mail gets its way and loses the mtsf agreement?

interesting comment,when you only have 2 night workers how much work do you expect to get done?my night duty is due to go after xmas and its all good and well people saying oh yeah well no sorting done at night so we can cut off,but what about the people that still work nights?everyone is unhappy about later starts and sunday collections going but not a word is said about rm doing away with 99% of the night shifts that is left.dont forget that alot of people doing nights are senior men that have been doing it for years,so if they have to go back on earlies its a huge change to there lifestyle.
