Royal Mail Mangement Cunts

[Spud]

Get a different job

Exactly.

All you cunts do is whinge about Royal Mail, well work somewhere else.

No, i'll think you find Leggett and Ralphy are the ones making the threads moaning about the place.

Leggett said a while back that he was leaving but he's still there.  

[Ralphy]

Leggett, Compo, Spuddy.

Have you been told your xmas hours yet?

This morning a LAN came through which our manager read out.

Due to an expected 9% drop in traffic this xmas, delivery staff will not be getting the usual 14 hours scheduled attendance spread over the 2 week xmas pressure period.

Instead, we are offering 6 hours over the 2 weeks.  :x

6 hours overtime for the 2 weeks !!!!!

It works out about 20-30 mins a fucking day!

During xmas pressure i regularly go 2-3 hours over my time!

Are we expected to work for nothing?!

fuck me you'll have to do your proper hours instead of going home early?

And how would you know what hours i work?

My round itself takes 4 to 4 and a half hours and thats after i've sorted and prepped it.

I start at 5am and never finish till 1 at least.

Oooh that's the longest shift I've ever heard of. Get a fucking grip.

[magicroundabout]

i'd fucking love to work until 1pm everyday.

ok getting up early is shit but tbh i could start work at 12pm and i'd still find it hard to get to work on time

[sonic youth]

I start at 5am and never finish till 1 at least.

8 hours? even i used to work longer hours than that.

That must have been one hell of a Paper round.  

[Leggett]

i was gonna leave, but my new job is far, far better (i.e i do less work, and most of it is driving around)  so i'm quite content to stay. oh, and i'm still getting paid night rate

[Compo]

i just spend most of my day stuck on the M4 :evil:

[Leggett]

god bless mahooosive accidents that they have to shut the motorway for! but you gotta admit, you do less work than me! so dont complain

[Ralphy]

8 hours is a standard working day in this country.

And back to my original point, i wasn't moaning about my hours, their great, i love them.

What i originaly said was, we're expected to work for nothing over xmas pressure period.

Spuddy, all our deliveries are 3 1/2 to 4 hours long.

Mine is a rural delivery with 450 delivery points.

[Simon Pieman]

No you're getting something. It is a cunt but that comes with the job and working for an organisation that is, let's be honest, going down the pan a bit.

At the moment I'm working through my lunch hour unpaid to do my job. But that   comes with the job. I'm not happy about it but it's only for a few weeks. There are far more people in a worse off position.

[Ralphy]

No i'm not getting something!!!

My standard shift is 5am to 1pm.

During xmas pressure we will never finish our rounds by 1pm, it's normally 3pm.

To compensate this, in years gone by, we're given 2 hours overtime everyday for the xmas pressure fortnight. So thats 14 hours.

This year, we've been offered 6 hours!

So i'll be working for nothing alot.

[Simon Pieman]

You're getting 6 hours - that's something.
I love winding you up though Ralphy
 

Seriously though, if you're unhappy look for a different job.

[Ralphy]

Your a cunt! You like annoying me!
