Re: WCM
On a personal note - it started out as a good idea - improving H&S awareness and improving traffic flow etc. But it degenerated into a farce and started to treat people as idiots or small children (Telling people how to walk properly, instructing people by taped message how to use stairs, and pretty pictures showing 4 people pepping 1 duty)
Good in theory, ruined by Royal Mails man management style, and by people trying to avoid delivery work, which is a pity because some did actually want to work.

Re: WCM
By traffic flow I mean planning when and where vehicles park between the DO car Park and the overnight storage (1 mile away). Also the planning of where the duties are indoors and where the IPS is in relation to the lift. (3 stories in our DO). Done properly thats where WCM should help, sticking up pretty pictures and indoor flow is of no use to anyone except managers with targets and attached bonuses.

Some of them appear to have put on a little weight drawing pictures for a living,there might be a fair bit of sweating and wheezing going on.johnnyp wrote:Plenty of people in Mail Centres involved in this crap as well who will now have to return to the floor and do a days graft for a changemy heart bleeds for them
It might be wise to keep some first aiders handy Johnny.

Re: WCM
This is what I expected,in our office WCM layabouts walk about trying to tell us what to do,they wear managers jackets and scared to do any processing.I think it is a total waste of money and them people would be better off helping on the shop floor

Re: WCM
Apparently they want to release me for 2 weeks for what they call WO(workplace organisation?). More like WC. Whatever it is no doubt it will be totally pointless so I'll continue to do what I'm doing.....delivering the post.
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets
Illegitimi non carborundum
