Re: 3 in a van 3k delivery points
Another ridiculous idea by Royal Mail, but if that’s what they want then it’s a reasonable request. It doesn’t change the fact I’ll be back on time.
The day is gonna come when we’re all gonna have to testify.

Whoever comes up with this incessant s**t, doesn't actually think, their brain just farts.
And, more often than not, the farts that pass for thoughts, are those of the silent, but violent, variety.

“Let the drivers do the oversized and let the walkers do the rest”. Seem to remember that’s how it used to work but with bikes. Now there’s an idea!!!

Another waste of time this will cause as you could get 2 wants to cut off and one carry on, so all three of you have to come back for one to go back out, and they say they are trying to save money!

What a load of Bullocks, tried this in the past tristar/starburst and it failed miserably, just unworkable.
Singletons for all would be what would work best.

That would definitely be the most efficient. Maybe if they hadn't stripped out all the profits last year and given them to the shareholders, we wouldn't have 13 year old vans in our yard and we could also have enough for all the drivers.

Two in a van share can be bad enough at times. Plenty time wasted. 3 sounds like a joke unless it’s a one off to clear down double mail.

Re: 3 in a van 3k delivery points
Yes we have been doing 3 in a van,you couldn't make it up, collapse a walk add it on to shared van,they cut off everyday add a 3rd man into the van and so much time wasted dropping off picking up because its designed for a shared van and we are still cutting off,so less work being done now than before,the new revisions are actually costing more than before,i still find it hard to believe a company losing 1 million pound a day wants to lose another million in failed revisions, im try to think of another word for STUPID

I heard a rumor that they are investing in Bajaj Auto the rickshaw maker and they will be powered by two hungry hamsters!

If there is an efficient way to do something and a thick as mince way to do the same job, RM top table will pick the mince option every time.
