If you have to pick up your cdv from another office 2.5 miles away from your office do you get travelling expenses because you have to go to another office not your own?

Is this a normal and all the time thing?

You should go to YOUR office then get a lift to the other office in your duty time.
Also what happens at the end of the duty?

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.

Your time starts as soon as you enter YOUR office and not when you get to the other office. You finish when you hand the keys back at YOUR office.
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

Let's say you start at 6,you go to your office at 6 then get transported to the other office and you get there at 6-30, are you saying your shift now starts at 6-30?
