So, officially if I do most of the walking on the round I shouldn't have a PDA?

Does this mean I should do everything manually?

Does this mean I shouldn't carry anything that needs signing for?
Somebody called me a cult the other day, well I think that was what he said!

Trials of the equipment found that the PDA was too bulky for Delivery Staff other than Drivers to carry round and therefore the PDAs will not be given to those who deliver by foot, cycle or high capacity trolleys.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

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

There was a smaller PDA supposed to be coming in, but it would appear it is not going to materialise. Possibly due to cost, but also because if everyone ends up on park and loop, then there should be no need for them. Of course, how long it takes for all revisions to be done, anyone's guess.
