delivering test kits during Xmas holiday

Post by eastie »

We were offered £17.50 an hour to deliver testkits over the xmas holidays
Must be a catch like the amount per hour.
Im not interested but if they are offering time and a half there must be some profit in delivering them.
Lot of people in our office told the DOM to do one when asked

Think there's also a 4 hr and 8 hr bonus payment to, still cheaper than the £ they're throwing at the temp companies ( not that the temps are getting that rate ).

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.

The profit in delivering them will have been accrued over the last 3-4 months of delivering them.
It's not as if we've been paid any extra for doing them...

No sorry, if you're interested I guess your manager would know more.
