Early Shifts - How's it looking this morning?

Post by SpacePhoenix »

Are the MCs rammed this morning? Do you reckon they'll still be rammed when we arrive for our night shifts tonight?

Even if some are clearer they are about to get two days of post office and business mail dumped on them.

Once we had a system, if you're going to that address with a parcel, at least take the letters for that address too. Absolute common sense, and the right thing to do.

Now the letters aren't even being processed, they stay on the yorks or in the trays.

Those letters will contain life and death hospital appointments but are ignored in favour of a phone charger or a hairbrush in a packet.

Our office is pretty much cleared. Anything that’s not I’ll do as overtime later.

I've been insisting on getting all my mail in and taking the stuff I have packets for, if only to get some space in the frame. Some of our walks are knackered, some are pretty clear (weird mix of rich and poor areas, the wealthy packet lovers aren't getting much mail)

So in another thread people have to stop giving abuse to strike breakers with threat of being banned but then you have people like this person coming on deliberately trying to wind people up is there not any ban getting imposed on the likes of him.

Yet management are telling the public letters get equal priority .Surely it's time for Ofcom or the government to step in and investigate this .
