Has anyone been missed out on the new uniform?

Post by postiewhite »

Last week a lot of staff have got their new uniform, apparently this was ordered by a manager months ago but they seemed to have forgotton staff that was either on a day off or on annual leave.
Im one of the few thats walking around in tired uniform and cannot seem to order the new stuff from dimensions. For some reason its still the current range only.
Is there a way to order this new range online?

We were told that we had to order it ourselves. I cannot see that anyone has bothered inc myself.

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.

I'm not too fussed really, it'll come when it comes, in the meantime my current uniform is still servicable, I'm also wearing the old RM blue fleece and still serviceable, probably the best out of all the kit issued.

Some of the lads I've seen tends to come in with the minimum RM uniform they can get away with it seems, a shirt and high vis at best.

Saw a guy on Sunday, clearly agency, was wearing a manager's hi-vis. Knowing how uncaring agency typically are, it's a good look for RM. But then again RM managers aren't exactly experienced in anything useful, so i guess it fits..
