I was going to ask my H&S rep if the same rules were going to be in operation re 35 degree heat but they are on the Pat and Mick.
Did I say again?
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

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’ve heard it could reach 35c again later this week in the south. So I assume it will be the same as last time - when it hits 35 we stop working and return to office and go home? :hmmmm

Met Office have now issued an amber weather warning for most of England south of Manchester, covering Thursday to Sunday.

Temps could reach 35C (which should trigger a universal return to depot), use your own safety judgement even if the temp doesn't get that high.

Last time a few wily posties hung back at the depot until they could get a thermometer to 35, then went home....
