Mail sort 3

Post by Docketman »

When I get home on a Saturday morning, my post has arrived with M3 included. I live in an area with a different office, so do different offices have different rules, or is my postman trying to impress his boss?
I leave it all till Monday.

From what i've heard there are some offices that don't have an 'early finish' can't see why though.
The National agreement is that it doesn't have to be taken if it's in a mech bundle but the loose ones have to go.
As a rule most offices,like ours can leave the lot.
Personally i take all the flats and usually leave the letters,some guys in our place take the lot,some don't touch it.

That sounds like an idea. like my system for delivering door to doors in a way. (see topic)
