Annual leave/Rest day

Post by steved252 »

Hi,
I've been a postie for 4years now but this is the first time this has cropped up.
Friday and Saturday next week are pre booked annual leave but someone has decided Friday is my rest/day off.
What are my options? Can I get it paid as overtime or do they owe me another day which I'll never be able to get off?
Thanks.

The annual leave day for your day off will be cancelled and credited back to you.
There is no payment as it's not a bank holiday issue.

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.
