That was like watching a programme about a different job altogether.

Not a word on how long it took the reporters to complete their 3.5 hour rounds.

By the tone of the program, I'm sure if they had finished on time it would have made a sure point of this.

[Debbie]

you couldnt make it up. what a load of bull.

[norfolk n chance]

they said at the start they were still delivering into the dark!

[smokerjim]

Missed it, watching it on C4+1....and the intro has my blood boiling already

[Pat Ostman]

Wow, for once I agree with Royal Mail's response.

[shadow]

All they've done is pick the worst of the bunch and tried to make us all look bad. For once I agreed with RM and what was said at the end. Most posties are hard working. I hope we don't all get tarred with the same brush.

[Caniel]

Also down south and don't have a 4 day week, we work 5 day weeks and struggle to get our rounds done in the time we have.

Yep no wonder Dave and his merry men went out for so long.

They did, six hours and they did not complete.

London are a good union base but having said that they don't half have some dick head managers!. And i thought ours were bad but we all try our best but the reporters look as they were on a jolly at the end of the program it said they had now left the business is it too hard for them if life is so easy on the post!.

[AnotherLimey]

I live as far "south" as you could possibly live and i work a 5 day week and my full daily hours, i too am appalled as to what is going on in London if that is a true refelction.

[malawihap]

Well that program really painted us in a good light, i can't wait to face my customers tomorrow

Feck me 29hrs O/T at S/A rate over the xmas period WTF. Good on the rep for negoatiatng that one.

Sorry chaps there is one major divide between north/south postal workers what a load of B/S

The manager stated same as last year well last year there was nothink on the table apart from the 2hrs on each saturday.

If this programme is an update view of whats happening down south well let me tell you somethink youve got it easy you want to try and get up north.

2hrs on each sat??? We got the same as last year and that was f**k all. We just got what we got as we get on any normal week. I find these agreements at local level a load of bullshit. Some offices seem to get good deals others dont even have any negotiation. This I feel is why some of us workers are so divided in opinions on RM sometimes, and how RM divide us when we should stick together. We all work for the same company we should be treated the same across the country.
