one for the future?

Post by vinnieb5 »

Royal Mail should adopt the rules of cricket with Alistair Cook suspended and fined 20% of his match fee for slow over rate maybe if posties work pass their time the managers should be suspended and fined 20% of their salary for slow delivery rate :wink:

OMG you can see what would happen there, the managers would turn it on its head, and you would be fined 20% of your wage for going slow :nana

More likely we would be officially on 5 day Test standards, but local management across the country would insist on 20/20 commitment and speed.

Our managers often looked stumped but nobody bothers to bail them out.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

after reading the KP book I would say the similarities between RM management and the England management are scarily similar :Very Happy
