"Always ring in,at least 30-60mins before your duty finishes if they get stroppy and don't give you a time to ring,or are adamant you will finish.
Do the above even if work has been taken off you,and you still can't finish on time.
If you do not ring in you will get done for willful delay"...........in my office it can take 60mins to get the fat lazy b%$£"*ds to answer the phone!!!
Try and get hold of their mobile number, they cant say they did not get message then. Or even get them to get one each from 1st line fix, which is what they did at my DO.

Totally agree. Play them at their own game, by their own rules. When it goes t*** up, well it's ain't our fault. I don't advocate swinging the lead, but you're right, any pressure to complete delivery early has been removed. We have three and a half hour delivery spans, if a delivery takes longer, let them know! Demand some is taken off, work to our time, take our breaks, it's what they want. Our DOM has also banned anyone from starting early. One hour from a walk on OT is to be spent on IPS (2x half hours), don't know how that is going to work if they are FT they will be doing IPS anyway, not our problem.
There is now no incentive to do any more than we are paid for. I will fulfill the terms of my contract but no more. There is no point, it is not appreciated but expected and that is just wrong.

We must come back and sign out before we finish! I cant wait for our office DOMS and LINOS to discover how flexible we were in the past and how we CANT be now because we do what they want us to do the saps. And before anyone goes off into one think! Your not allowed to come in early and RM have gained from that practice for years. You must take your break before you go out, so there will be none of this nevermind i made half an hour yesterday so i will give them that today by not having my break so i can do the delivery and finish on time. Who the f*ck is dumb enough to start throwing off a walk at 1400 hours and go and deliver it in the summer when its hot or in the winter when its wet dark and cold. (now i know every office has its shair of w*nkers but not many are gonna want to do that i think? With this in mind how many people are going to come back early to do extra work for nothing? Not many i would wager. The stress of the job will go overnight for us posties as we dont need to carve up a walk to finish early because there just is no point so QUALITY of service will sky rocket as well. I can only see good coming from our office agreement the only thing is i think our DOM will realise it and will let it go back to what it was as the only REAL winner of job and finish was RM and they were just too stupid to realise how flexible we have always been but cant be now. The pointers from POSTMAN about cutting off are going to come in very handy me thinks cant wait for a Thursday and Friday. LOL.
Sorry missed this bit you big boys from RM and CWU FLEX MY ARSE. LOL.
100% SPOT ON GOOD LUCK MATE. IF ONLY ALL POSTIES WERE THIS GOOD IN FACT
