Security Risk Assessment

Post by Sidley »

Edited for brevity, I've been told I should do my own risk assessment when leaving mail in my lwt when visiting other floors in accommodation with intercom access. Yeah I know there are alternatives but was what I was told managerial shorthand for 'cant be arsed here's a solution with minimal potential blowback except for muggins mailman'?

I don't think the lwt should be left unattended.
If you have buildings you need to enter then the lwt is not a suitable means of delivery.
These buildings should be done individually from the van.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

I agree the walk should have been configured for that situation ie low weight pouch short loop so you can deliver without LWT.

Yes
Run, rabbit run. Dig that hole, forget the sun.
And when at last the work is done. Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one

Agree. Does sound like the buck is being passed. And if something goes wrong, the blame will be heading in your direction too.
Sometimes, I wish I wasn't a Rep.
