Anyone on Workplace standing up to this bully?
Well actually there's the odd one or two fighting in his corner but he's getting hammered pretty hard.

Well like I said in another post, WP is pretty much same as here. As long as you don't make public attacks on people anything goes. Yes, there's loads of people telling him he's talking shite. Literally comment after comment after comment.

It always baffles me that if people like Mr Thompson think that they are so great at running a buisness, why do they not create and run a buisness with their own money.
I would love the opportunity to get paid well for being rubbish at something and not gamble a penny in doing so.

Royal Mail is like a low end football club: bring in a new manager for an exorbitant fee, let them dawdle about blaming the players whilst only making changes that harm the teams morale, make a few contentious statements to the media then pay them to leave before repeating the cycle.

So Simon, RM is losing 1 million a day which equates to £365 million a year. Yet you paid out £400 million to share holders deliberately putting us in debt when we could have made a profit?

What kind of over paid incompetent clown are you? You couldn't run a bring and buy sale. Time for you to do at least one honourable thing whilst being CEO and fall on your sword for the good of us all! :so there
Union what Union? Do we have a union?

Absolutely disgusting to reward yourself a massive bonus and then say the company is losing money. Do you think we are stupid si...

You and this company have nothing without the loyal workforce. I suggest you go and have a good hard look at yourself and this insulting offer you have made to us. Inflation is now running at nearly 10%. And you insult us with this offer of 2% plus another 1.5% With string attached and expect us to be pleased. You and your board should be ashamed of yourself...

I'm a loyal 12year worker at royal mail and I'm disgusted in you.
How dare you take a 100k plus bonus and payrise the tell us there is no money for us. We stood by you in the pandemic just you remember that. You should now stand by us and do the right thing and reward us properly and respectfully.

Wheres the self destruct button Si?

Your going to push more people out this business by shifting time patterns, lowering wages on a sunday which nobody wants to really work on a day of rest. You wonder why 50% of the workforce that do work on a Sunday are temps. Si wants to buy us out and rob us all from the certain allowances which we all deserve, sorry but not taking a pay cut.

Imagine working a 9 to 3 in the summer when funny enough the hottest time of the day would be from 11 to 3. With the weather that we've just been having, I dont particularly want to be burnt or the chance of getting cancer. Also working a 9 to 6 in the winter when you can't feel your fingers by the end of the day.

I would rather have no deal than take another 3.5% with a dozen changes which will affect many.
