Do we now stop listening to our managers when told to prioritise tracked parcels? Given that our top dogs are saying in front of Parliament that this instruction should not and is not happening.

It’s the first class, he wants shot of it or a relaxing of the USO to deliver it in 2-3days
EVERYTHING changes then, offices will be getting your mail for next day delivery in the afternoon/evenings.
He has no intention of equalising new entrants.
Finally you heard it from the big man, parcels are NOT prioritised over letters!!!

As long as we get paid and there are finish times, I couldn’t give a toss if RM tell us to deliver letters once a year. It makes no difference to me. I’ll be starting and finishing at the exact same time every day. The Union getting on their high horses over a stupid meeting is hilarious. Get workers better pay, nevermind worrying about bloody letters being late. I don’t care if they never get them

Parcels should be prioritised. They make money, letters are worth very little. If you all want a job in the future, this is how it should be.
:d'oh! If there was no mail thousands of jobs will go - no job for you in the future :wave
