It was unsafe to drive anywhere(north east) and having previously crashed in the snow wasn’t going to risk it, followed by 3 days of daughters school being closed and needing to look after her and then a Saturday still unsafe to drive.

Would I be paid anything at all?

If you managed to get to your nearest RM premises you will be paid. If not you won't receive any pay.

If you didn’t go to work then you won’t get paid.

And you can take it as annual leave, if no leave left this year you are allowed to dip into next years.

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.
