the thought of losing 30,000 members jobs , what a joke , there used to be over 365,000 employees and what is the now ? if RM wants to go 5 day a week they will and for me the sooner the better , also if it was to go 5 day a week then it would defo be saturdays that would go apart from a skeleton staff to cover saturday gurantedd ect .
fact is it`s time to put me and my family 1st and stop worrying about others ,
the jobs and attitude has changed over the years and now for me i go to work , do the hours i`m required to do then go home , as long as the mortgage and bills are paid i`m happy .

if you don't want to work saturdays then get another job rather than 'accepting' that 1 in 6 of your workmates will have to lose thier jobs so you can have a lie in

you knew saturdays were a working day when you started

and besides IF RM ever went to a 5 day week I doubt very much that it would be saturdays that went

how would you feel then having shafted your workmates only to still have to work every saturday and having Tuesdays off?

couldn't put it better myself :Applause :Applause

There is a poll (stickie) in the 2010 forum. :silenced

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.
