Just received an insulting mail-out from RM - it's going straight back .... the words "insult" and "intelligence" come to mind ...

I also agree, and as we haven't had the 3 year wait yet, unless we actually buy shares, we don't own any either.

They think we're idiots, clearly. It needs spelling out to us in simple words, apparently. Unfortunately, some of my colleagues are actually idiots, so apparently this is all necessary to cater for those idiots.

I remember once at a rare WTL, a manger with a whiteboard was explaining to the room that 9am specials had to be scanned before 9am and 1 o'clock specials had to be scanned before.... you guessed it, 1 o'clock.

Somebody asked him if he thought that we were all idiots and his answer was that our office had failed over 2 dozen specials because of late scans already that year, so it was clearly necessary to explain this to all of us in the most simple manner possible so that every idiot (my word, not his) would understand!

I think the upper echelons of RM management have seen the number of threads on this very site about how much we get paid for D2D and why the Delivery Supplement shouldn't be pro rata and have come to the conclusion that we aren't very bright and consequently everything needs to be as simple and as clear as possible.
The average reading age of an adult in the UK is not much better than the average 9 year old.
