How long is it usually before you get a reply from whatever it was you asked Allan? It's been over a week since I asked him something and I am still yet to hear. Maybe he didn't like what I put forward? I had the standard "We have recieved your email" thing.

That's probably because he's on some desert island counting his wonga :left:

Ok moving on,most people seem to say it's a couple of weeks.
It gets read by his lackeys.

But now it's ask adam.Try him.

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 cc'd him into a letter I sent to the DSM and Human Resources re: bullying and harassment and I'm still waiting for a reply 2 years later!

Don't suppose I've got much chance now. :lfo :mad
