Door to door junk mail
There's probably less risk with D2Ds as they won't have been handled by so many people. In a MC they'd only get touched to be loaded onto a york to go to the relevant DO. Other streams of mail will have probably been handled by two people, possibly 3 if it's a large packetSprattacus wrote:You want to get things to the people...norris9 wrote:Very true.GRS wrote:Can’t believe so many people on different threads trying to get out of doing any work by disguising their laziness as concern for spreading the virus. So many people don’t want to deliver packets,parcels, letters ,D2D etc etc. Many don’t want to go to work but still want full pay and expect the company to still be there when all this is finally over. On one thread someone has called on the CWU leaders to grow a pair and call strikes. About time some postman grew a pair and manned up. Shop workers, nurses, cleaners etc etc are working away putting in extra and yet the usual cry babies want to shy away. I have seen and heard many comparing this situation to a war...... well thank f**k it ain’t one!!!
We need to get things to the people + I want Royal Mail to prosper and survive, not pack up and risk job layoffs.
People are even having a go at management for not providing hand sanitiser because they themselves can't spend a couple of pounds on their own bottle. If you haven't bought your own hand sanitiser then you obviously don't care that much about keeping your hands clean, you are just trying to guilt trip management. Do you want Royal Mail to wipe your bum for you too?
Yeah because a furniture sale with 50% off down the road at a store that might not even be open for much longer is people's main concern right now. Do me a favour.
Office is already failing because there isn't enough staff to complete. Logical thing then would be cut down non essential items like door to doors. I'm pretty sure graphic designers etc aren't knocking up new leaflets as we speak with what's happening.
Maybe reply with what your thoughts are regarding virus living on objects/surfaces for hours or days? A few studies seem to suggest that is the case. But you still think delivering non essential mail should continue despite the risk, and your reason for that is money? Or do you know something the experts don't?
