Coming in early

[thedonkey]

We have people still coming in hours early but not scanning to sign in until their start time. I feel like we are not just in a battle with RM but with some of our colleagues too.

When other people cover the deliveries and tell the DOM they can't complete the delivery. The DOM says well the regular guy does so I don't see why you can't.

Gaurantee it won't some people just can't help themselves.

Even if we get back to the office early, we are being made to stay till our finish time…..and still people are starting early. You really can’t help stupid people so don’t let it worry you.

It also puts managers off giving part timers early overtime if they've got a few bods in from 6 giving it out for free.

We have people at ours who come in early,race around,come back early,get sent out & moan about it,rinse & repeat,every,single,day.

Sometimes they even go back out in their own vehicles (not allowed I know) & do more mail in the completely opposite direction as to where they live. Not only do they love giving RM their time,it hits them in the pocket too via fuel. All to make,what,a few minutes?

Absolutely bizzare

That comment right there by the boss is bullying and harassment ,put in a complaint straight away ,its time to make a stand and other workers in earshot back you up and tell the manager to stop bullying your colleague,union reps now need to step up and question manager's behaviour and stop laughing and chatting to them.

here here ! we have the same lunatics at our place - i have mentioned it to the rep who says hes powerless to stop them , then they go and whinge and whine when the float does the job as it should be done and cant complete - ABSOLUTELY SCANDALOUS !

No one in the MC comes in early, some stay behind to finish off, and you would get away early later in week, well before the IA

If an idiot wants to come in early and work for free then to hell with them...cannot stand them for being so pathetic

If I get to the train station before 4:30am I don't have to pay because I've got a 60+ card. Boris introduced these cards for every Londoner over the age of 60 when he was mayor of London so that we could have free travel and reduce the number of cars in the capital.
The train companies are not under the control of the mayor and they won't let you use the cards in the London area before 9.30am but that period starts at 04.30.
So as long as I tap in at 04.29 or earlier I go to work for nothing, it doesn't matter when train leaves, you have 90minutes to complete your journey.
This means I'm in the sorting office early, but I read the paper, make breakfast and chat to colleagues etc until my official start time and then I scan in and start work.
Some people have good reasons to get in early, whether it is to save money or because they might get a lift or maybe their partner starts work early.
But I agree, people starting work early and then finishing well before their time are fools and there are a number of them.

It’s an illness

I don't know whether you say this in jest or not. Unfortunately it may well be an illness in some people, I know some of you may think this daft, bullshit or whatever but one thing I've become more and more aware of as I get older is how inflicted with mental health issues some people are. When you are younger and more naive you don't see or understand things and assume that everyone is the same as you. Therefore if you're not affected by something or not doing something (in this case coming in to work early) then why should someone else be etc etc. Someone I'm friends with at work suffers with mental health issues (high functioning so not visible to others) and yes a symptom of this is the reason they do come in early to work. The bullying they suffer for this by way of direct confrontation or snide comments is I can assure you not helping them in the least. All of this for what - so some of you can mock others for behaving in a small way differently to yourselves that you have somehow contrived to make up that it affects you.

If at least one of you stops and thinks for a minute that you're nastiness and bullying can be torture to people then having spent my time posting this will have been time well spent. Think on please people, these are your work colleagues!!!
