Fancy a free breakfast? Welcome to #SignedUp – your chance to get others on Workplace and grab yourself a £5 Greggs or Costa voucher

Who doesn’t love a freebie? Well, you can have breakfast on us if you help get five colleagues on Workplace for the first time.

We’ve launched our #SignedUp campaign and it couldn’t be easier to earn yourself a treat.

All you need to do is help five colleagues sign up, just as you have done, post in our SignedUp group using #SignedUp and tag the five you’ve helped to activate their accounts. Then wait for us to contact you to provide your £5 Greggs or Costa voucher.

‘I love my breakfast cuppa and pastry while I scroll Workplace - viewing CEO Simon Thompson’s latest updates and reading the challenging questions you put to him and others in the senior team,’ says director of corporate affairs, Jenny Hall. ‘It’s great to see your photos, find out who’s won the #pictureperfect competition and to read updates from across the business, all in one place.

‘Along with the rest of the senior team, I’d love to see even more people using Workplace.’

Workplace - The gift that keeps on giving.

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.

When do we have time for Facebook at work? During our overgrown duties or during enforced lapsing? I'm guessing in our own time, when I'd rather not think of Royal Mail thanks.

If a "Director of Corporate Affairs" is so enthusiastic about something, it tends to put me off. Can`t be much of an uptake if bribery is now being employed. :hmmmm

I said it in another thread, but why don't/didn't they do something like that for the BIg Trust Survey? Except just the voucher please, not having to sign up or 'tag' others.

You have to sign up five others first , so don’t even start thinking about GREGGS, until you do so. Don’t ask me by the way ,I want no part in it! Whatever Workspace is. Unless when you’re scrolling through it counts as lapsing.

Stinks of desperation, maybe a packet of seeds will suck the sane good Post People to their one sided b***s**t app.
