When I worked for a smaller company with around 50 employees the CEO knew of everything. In the case of the Post Office there were around 60000 employees and I would not therefore have expected a CEO to get involved with the nitty gritty. That was the point I was making to reinforce my conclusion that Vennells was doubly culpable even though I think my minority opinion that she is putting up a reasonable defence of her untenable situation remains.

Perhaps you have a different experience although I fully expect you to disagree.
We've all worked for people like Paula Vennells - they're everywhere. People who are over-promoted and lack both the morals and critical thinking skills to do the job they're paid for. That's why the public have so much empathy for those affected - because it could happen to us all
