I would imagine thats it, failed, and not to be done? You cannot be expected to pile another 3X of the shite in the frame on top of the failed mail.
Run, rabbit run. Dig that hole, forget the sun.
And when at last the work is done. Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one

That's for your manager to decide, that's why they get the big money :nervous

Thought it was live mail now and therefore it would have to be delivered or Wilful delay by bosses :left:

They're not 1st class mail, they're live mail, if they where 1st class then they'd all have to be delivered on the day they come in :Very Happy

Work to your time, frak the rest of it. If the manager instructs you to deliver seven lots of door to doors then so be it - make sure you painstakingly arrange them and place/force/manipulate/contort them into your frame in the morning, at 1/6th per day, then inform your manager in the presence of a witness (preferably a number of witnesses in my experience) that you can only do 'x amount' of your walk before allowing him to deal with the problem. Remember, s/he is paid considerably more than you to deal with such problems, your job is to work your contracted hours, no more. Don't go out of your way for the company, don't concern yourself with the backlog. It's not your problem if it never gets delivered - that is certainly what I shall be saying should anyone make the mistake of trying to worm their way into my thought processes when I arrive at work tomorrow morning. I'm willing to take some measure of overtime should it be offered because I don't mind the extra money, but I have been reliably informed that our office hopes to clear the backlog within the CONTRACTED HOURS of our footmen (postmen).

Lol.

Good luck to them.

Although the thick frakking mother frakkers who come in early and run around with the help of their motor vehicles will no doubt make it work whilst I struggle, leaving me to look like a prick.
