Ask them to visit at 2 in the afternoon. That mail’s going nowhere.

Raise a concern stating that on multiple occasions you were instructed to leave 48 hour and economy USO mail which has been left undelivered for X days due to the workload being impossible to complete within paid hours. 
On the face of it, shareholder value is the dumbest idea in the world.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
