Under "INNOVATING" the video shows "York sleeves Engineered"
My experience of these cortex sleeves is that a high percentage are daily being taken out of service because they are damaged. Also they cannot retain certain items. Perhaps a video could be shown to highlight these defects & how time is lost on constantly removing defective Yorks which are not functional.
The sleeves are trash. They’re also a hazard as if you are below a certain height you can’t see where you are going when pushing a York.

Dump the drones. Junior management culture cancels out anything like that. This is an old company, not new. No one repairing damaged plastic sleeves at Bristol Mail Centre. I have just destroyed a pair of trainers kicking the s**t out of these plastic sleeves to put the front door in the right place. Ordered some from Royal Mail but they dont do half sizes, so they just go in the garage again. Got to pay for my own. OK got better after thompson retired (unemployable) but image of the bad nasty people has to be turned around. You go into a post office and three black cars pull up. Six ex policemen walk in and tell everyone to leave as the shop is going to closed. How do you turn that around after doing it for twenty years.

When we're forced to use them for mech letters or manual letters or flats most of the time we'll rip the door off so that we can get the trays onto the york. A good few even with the door fully upright it gets too tight to get the trays in.
