Could all Branches please ensure the ballot results are circulated to every workplace and brought to the attention of the membership as soon as possible.

Yours sincerely

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.

Funnily enough, I'm sat here writing my letter of resignation.

If what Lovejoy has written is true, I'll be writing it in red caps.
