That's the impression I had, and it's why I said management treat
workers as "work units". That's not only in the Post Office: it's a
creeping desease throughout industry, and I blame "management
schools" and similar courses for much of the problems and
unhappiness in industry.

Well it was refreshing and interesting to hear from your side of
the picture, Steve.

I have a cure for the country's industrial problems. For any
company that has more than 2 levels of management, scrap the
remainder. And that would produce enough money to pay the workers
more.

If 95% of management are "in a meeting", when does any work get done?
