D2D prep for sa walk advice please

Post by music4essex »

Hi I put this in here also on the D2D in the 2010 agreement part for D2D

We had our brief for the start day next week for D2D

My problem is this I prep my walk and within that prep is a SA walk that is done by postpersons on SA that also prep another walk that goes with it,
I have never done the D2D for this part of the walk and the sa holders get paid for prepping the other part of the walk and to deliver.

I asked my dom this morning if I have to prep the d2d and he said yes, now all the other walks that are lapsed and we have to deliver (3) when these are prepped the prep does not include D2D only letters/flats and packets. so when we take out the 30 odd calls we also have to prep our own d2d
My question is this can I be made to prep the sa walk for d2d or can i refuse as I don't have that much time? my feeleing is they should prep the d2d as part of the sa

Any advice would be appreciated

Do everything you are asked to do within your duty span - if when that ends there is work still to do , or you anticipate there will still be work to do - then tell your manager that you will require an extended delivery payment or someone else to complete the outstanding work. There is always time - but it is their time - when it becomes YOUR time you can complain or take appropriate action. When a manager asks why you cannot complete in the time you have tell him how many different bits have been added to the job - and then go and take your break.
We wish to serve - but we will not be servile
