This can either manifest as how many thousands of letters they are down today, questioning your pace and totally refusing to apply the equalities act (if applies) if you can't move at X speed. They may even try to belittle you with regards to the other person who can do the OT (if they even end up getting paid for it).
The computer says it can be done, of course. I tell them the computer can f***ing well do it then but that's why "my location" is always in the line managers office being screwed over.
yes this is the problem, we were kind of ok on our section but now we have some line manager who thrives on confrontation the only thing going for him is he seems to treat everybody beyond contempt and stands at the end of the sorting isles not just the ips and shouts abuse but if you bite it can soon get into arguments if you claim you cant complete the mail is counted, iwt is used always seems to have an answer what can we do?

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. My BFF Clash The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
Judging by your previous post it's 'my' answer,have you a rep and if so why is it allowed to continue.
