RMCtv : Ringwood revision : A 'horseshoe' frame set-up has created a fairer working day for all colleagues.

[pieoftheday]

It's so frustrating for us long timers when management who don't have a clue, come up with ideas that clearly to anyone who does the job, will not work for the best of the company. There's a reason most posties phrase of choice is 'its not rocket science '. It's because it isn't! Remember that Japanese s**t that the company wasted millions on ten yrs ago?

World Class Mail. Designed for Honda factories. Big Fail for RM.

I never really knew what World Class Mail meant, occasionally a manager would say it but never in any real context that I could tell

Its a shame you didn't take some photos, when they'd all got back of delivery John. To show how much work didn't get completed.

I can only see Yorks clearly, does John think Yorks are fittings?

We had a full time World Class Mail person at our office. Paid about 40,000. Put a poster up ocassionally.

there was 1 OPG that spoke correct. But I guess people would rather voice their opinions on Royal Mail chat then when they have the chance to be listened to by people that can actual do something about it

[pieoftheday]

what else can you say? Make no wonder there isn't anyone on here that has experience of it,

How do you plan ahead for timed deliveries when you're no idea what you'll be doing from one day to the next?

They probably send a van out with the SDs and time delivery items

Is this quote a joke, a made up statement?
Surely it's not a genuine one.

If someone can explain how the sorting works that would be great.

I’m going to assume we don’t have Steve walking from one end of the horseshoe to the other in order to prep his next letter.

So let’s say to make it more efficient for sorting, the horseshoe is presumably sectioned say 1-30.
That way Steve just has to stay at section 1 otherwise it would be a bit daft.

Now let’s call this bit of the horseshoe “Walk 1” just for argument sake…

How did the galaxy brain managers even expect this to work?

"Right, it's light today so you're all doing 1.8 metres of frame each today. Hang on, I'll fetch the tape measure".

[pieoftheday]

A bit like bench merging, I'm now going it's all shite bollox nonsense?

Given that most Tracked will be timed delivery, how would that plan work?

In the video-It was the staff's idea.

what happens if someone's round makes them go over and they cut off as not everyone is the same speed with age and other factors?
Plus what about when people are off ill?

[BigSacks]

f***ing hell I can’t believe this has gotten so much attention but it does sum up Royal Mail management that they think reorganised deckchairs means efficiency.

Lee Martin has somehow reinvented the Royal Mail prep and delivery wheel.

We have:

similar sized loops according to terrain-check
Skilled/prior knowledge frame prep-check
Differing workloads according to traffic-check

So, everything we do now but in a horseshoe shape-HURRAH!

Jesus.
