Post Office
Latest is:
The clerk involved has been sacked and is likely to be facing criminal charges.
Also currently dealing with Postwatch regarding compensation from Post Office Counters.
Cannot really say any more at this point. -

Re: Post Office
So there I was working quietly in the Post Office when this transvestite bloke walks in mumbles something about parcels and gives me gyp about a quid.
You could tell he was a bloke although he was wearing a dress. He smelled terrible and was carrying a box of Kleenex.
Well anyway I give him hell back and next thing I know they've sacked me.Comment

Revenge is a dish best served cold
I expect they will offer to settle out of court for a quid. 61p to fund the royal family and the remaining 39p is all yours.Also currently dealing with Postwatch regarding compensation from Post Office Counters.Comment

If you recall, the clerk involved was a woman. She was dismissed for opening and reading the letter, the evidence against her was irrefutable really....criminal charges,

Re: Post Office
So this woman, with four kids no doubt, will now be on the rock-and-roll (i.e. incapacity) for the next 10 yrs due to stress related illness.
Thanks Carol. More tax wasted. >:Comment

Re: Post Office

Rock n Roll or Jailhouse Rock?
It all depends on the CPS, but as I said the evidence speaks for itself so she is very likely to be charged. She could expect up to two years in the big house from what I've been told.
Is that likely to cost more than being 'on the sick'?
At least I know my tax dollars are directed at righting the wrongs
