Tracked items .

[Dexydog]

I don't get what the problem is.
This is our job, do it.
RM want us try neighbours.
So try a neighbour.
If you don't finish bring it back.
If you want to, and can do, the overtime because this then causes delay, stay out and finish and book the overtime.
If a gaffer then balls you out for booking that overtime, stop trying neighbours.
This pays your wages, stop moaning about.

Whose great idea was it to send customers notifications about what time to expect their parcel when we don't get to see this information ? Many a time i will deliver a very large parcel for the end of the duty first.

Someone that doesn't have to listen to the customer complaining its 6 hours late.
I have flagged this up with 3 different DOMs now (you know, customer email says tracked item will be delivered between 7.41 and 12.57, when we don't even leave the office till after 9).
Tbh have given up even bothering to argue things can be done much better.
It's called joined up thinking, something RM are very poor at.

Ahh I was waiting for the one that was going to roll out the it’s your job line and you didn’t disappoint.I’ve been in the job over 30 years , I know it’s my job , I’m simply stating that Royal Mail could do a lot more to make customers aware regarding expected parcel deliveries.

Completely agree.
The system used is rubbish and not fit for purpose.
Is it annoying?-of course it is.
My point was if it takes us longer, so what?

Actually from a post count and visitor numbers please carry on moaning, it helps create interaction and hopefully gives the posters some measure of relief.

Isn't that why most people come on here?- to have a moan about stuff that either isn't fair, or usually a job that isn't do-able?
The feeling you are not alone thinking that.
In this case it wasn't actually me doing the moaning (usually is I grant you), but someone not being able to, er, deliver stuff.
I wasn't criticising that particular poster, my point was its actually costing the company more money in extra postie time due to not modernising, (and in another similar post recently trying to modernise but failing due to not utilising the tracking system to its fullest.

Fair enough.
Apologies if I was out of line.

Last mile packet delivery is a scandalous waste of time, and frankly, the earth's finite fossil fuel resource when the item isn't successfully delivered

The government should tax the f**k out of delivery companys, to kick them up the arse and force them do something about it

UK GOVERNMENT: WE WILL TRANSFORM LAST MILE DELIVERIES
