Re: Bridgwater postmen ordered off their bikes
Now there's a conundrum, because the agreement does not specifically stop cars on delivery, merely stops the use of private cars INSTEAD of the agreed method of delivery as I understand it. There are "special" circumstances whereby cars can be used under the guidelines, though the actual rules seem a bit vague.Lincox wrote:Been advised this week that any use of private car on deliveries will be immediate dismissal, including taking first bag out to first delivery point.
