nothing surprises me with this outfit but in the winter doesnt starting getting dark about 3.45 so this is modernastion :cfo

Waves folks, 7-3; 9-5;11-7; PT's in between. It's all about working to keep the machines rolling 24/7 ,they cost more than you and any idle time is dead money

I heard that someone rang RM to complain that their mail was late everyday as they had a business to run. When asked what time it was coming the customer said a time in the afternoon. RM response??? "Im afraid its not late, the mail can be delivered any time upto 12oclock midnight. As long as it is delivered on the correct day of delivery." HELLO have we gone mad??? Surely this cant be true???

Not without altering the terms of the license , but then again when have Postconn ever been worried about protecting the USO

The talk round our way is we wont be recieving our mail till 9 or 10am from our hub which has the super duper sorting machines so...... either a very late start or all staff P/T !!?

last letter when the shops shut

I remember a time when last letter on first delivery was 9.30pm and 1pm second delivery.

A lad in our office heard somewhere last year what they really wanted is us doin 9-5. When we put this to the management at the time he agreed and said yes thats what will prob come in in the end :cfo

Just make sure that when the christmas pressure kicks in that you are not out 'til 8-9oclock at night to complete deliveries - goodwill versus safety and quality of life - no contest !!!

When I was on firms collections we were given bags of mail to deliver to firms when we were collecting
after 1700 or 1800, because deliveries had not delivered them earlier. The manager said it was OK to
deliver them at this time as it was the same day, even though the firms were usually closed by that time.
We got flak from the security staff who we had to leave them with, but had to say that that was what we
had been told to do by our managers.

Not "cost more than you", worth more than you. There's a big difference...

[Lowkeyizsik]

Late starts would be brilliant! Imagine, we have hallowen coming up so we could dress up and go trick or treating at same time!
Extra money in our pockets!

If 8 or 9am starts came into my office i'd leave.It would take me 40 mins to get to work instead of 10, and there's no way I am delivering on a sh*t estate when it's going dark.

That just about sums you up my friend No doubt a valid point of view , but possibly one that me and most of humanity might beg to differ from
