Funny Strike Stories....Lets have a laugh !

Post by deadbox »

Does anyone have any funny stories from the strike days.....Lets hear them here....

I heard that in one Mail Centre, just as the strike was about to begin, ROMEC engineers REMOVED all the optical scanners from the sorting machines for "Maintenance" just as the managers were about to take over.......That'll be NO mech mail then.......lol

You've got to keep up on the maintenence of the equipment havn't you....it's in RM's rules......lol

More stories to keep us laughing please..... :Very Happy :Very Happy :Very Happy
I was sure I'd seen a bead of sweat on my line manager the other day - Until I realised that he had just brushed past me too close

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.
