Not that I do any.

The office is rammed full of failed frames.
But we are hitting

7 years for me. I had one beg and plead me to go over with a promise and kisses. Then never paid me... If it wasn't for that it would be 12 years.sixfoottwo wrote: ↑17 Jun 2023, 19:5228 yr anniversary here![]()

Re: Escrow Facts
I hope there is an overtime ban, will stop most of the daily arguements.

Re: Escrow Facts
Why are we having an overtime ban? Have I missed something?
Is it because Royal Mail wants to make sure we all vote no on the deal by reminding us what a set of clueless clowns they are?

Re: Escrow Facts
To be fair to them my managers have paid me overtime on all but one occasion (when it was quickly raised and sorted). It’s the farcical holiday pay agreement that made me decide to stop. Feel much better for it.enskied wrote: ↑17 Jun 2023, 20:037 years for me. I had one beg and plead me to go over with a promise and kisses. Then never paid me...

Re: Escrow Facts
Get that people need the money, but whole business is technically run by overtime. It's probably one of the reasons why it's in the state it's in. Anyone person that either off sick, on leave, or just decides not to do it for whatever reason and the place is f****d completely. You have people in our unit that management give overtime to and all sorts of shenanigans happen. You have people paid in the morning to do sorting but half of the have already throw in their walks before the rest of the staff have even walked through the door, some even bagged up and loading up their vans. Then, you have ghosting overtime too. The entire management needs looking into and need more staff in so you don't have to rely on certain people to play ball with. That's what will guarantee the USO being somewhat sustainable.

Re: Escrow Facts
There is no overtime ban. We are short staffed and management are begging people to work their days off.
