The contempt for their staff is insane
- denton-scratch 3y ago> The contempt for their staff is insane Subpostmasters are not Post Office staff; they are self-employed shopkeepers, who sign a contract with the PO to run the office in a part of their shop. I suspect that part of the contempt is precisely because the subpostmasters are not PO managers who have struggled up the greasy Post Office management pole. They are "civilians", and bureaucrats often despise civilians.
