Are you saying you would have liked to have been offered some of that overtime Gummage? In my experience Managers would normally move heaven & earth to avoid having to go out pounding the streets.

I always thought any group of Managers was called a "Thicket"! :thumbup

Thicket is more polite and PC than anything I came up with. My best would have been a ‘F***wittery’

That does not make any sense at all. Were the union involved in this? Was it some kind of industrial action. Odd,very odd.

A very common occurrence, no Union involvement.
