Please Stop calling him a liar now - Its easy to tell if someone is a moderator check the members details on the left of each post - mine says Multiverse Administrator - I am a Moderator - FT is not.

Also the colour of members names is also a clue.

There is a fundamental difference between being slow and doing nothing.
You cannot tell the difference as you have confused the issue.
Managers have the same problem.

Who is the laziest?
Someone who does 2 hours work in 2hrs or someone who does 2hrs work in 1hr and sits on their arse for an hour.
Some of the "fastest" posties in my D.O. are some of the laziest...and some of the dumbest.
If you can do 2hrs work in 1hr...why not give you 4hrs work and see if you can do it in 2hrs.
And...we are where we are. :cuppa
good times, bad times you know I've had my share

I mean we used to have a couple of lads who crushed cardboard boxes and stamped surcharge and 739s with the address etc...............now they were from the local special needs organisation and were officially "slow" - they used to be paid out of petty cash, merely a nominal sum................should they not have been "employed".

True, that was when this organisation had some humanity but there must still be room for those who are capable but not overly quick, who need time to consider things before any movement takes place. What is easy for some is not necessarily the case for everyone.
Well lets pay them less then
Well the other side of the coin would be those who can do more work because they' re faster should do more work because they can.

Are you lonely Gazza?
Is being offensive the only way you have found to have any human contact? :sad:
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Byward's experiences show that this job cannot be casualised.

Why are RM using short term contracts to cover regular work?

Byward is clearly working as a reserve and his duty should be permanent.
