any how regardless can they do regular opg work as ours don't have a clue, staff shortage and panicking because lapsing may not go and prepping the walks up, office rep didn't give a toss

Re: so what do we call the new screws?
I suggest Turbodrive.
It doesn’t roll off the tongue very well but
They’re just the same as regular screws, except they’ve got a fancy coating so things don’t stick to them and they tear into stuff easier with special jagged edges.
They don’t quite know what they’ll tear into next, and they come ten-a-penny, so you’ll maybe have one or two half decent ones and the rest will be s**t.

I call them "overpaid"
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

I don't think I've ever called them anything.
They are too inconsequential for a name.

If our DOM and his under manager become COM and COSM do they both get a big payrise for doing exactly the same job?

Re: so what do we call the new screws?
The DOM is now getting less as COM pays less than DOM
The line manager is getting more for going up to COM
If you tolerate this, then your paid break will be next

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.

Obviously there's a lot of hearsay/smoke and mirrors going on but, if I've got it right...Acca Dacca wrote: ↑25 May 2022, 14:09The DOM is now getting less as COM pays less than DOM
The line manager is getting more for going up to COM
Our PIC, who used to be DOM but is now a COM will remain on DOM wages for 2 to 3 years due to some employment law and the other COMs who used to be linos are now paid a bit more and are issued with a nice shiny Surface Pro to make them feel all special and important and efficient.
Judging by the inaugural week of this cost cutting, monumental Cock up and the rising levels of stress amongst said COMs , the bribes don't seem to be enough...one COM in particular is often seen walking around in a bewildered, bad tempered stupor whilst clutching their Surface Pro to their chest and muttering continously about 'it's my budget now, it's my budget.'
Sooner or later, a beat dog bites.
