Of course no one on this website does it Night Tonic, Alangate and Spedley we are just trying to educate ourselves so that we can tell when others do something naughty. As in Forewarned is forearmed. Also POSTMAN did say it was hypothetical.

Just wondering Night Tonic, Alangate and Spedley if your office has a name for it or have you never heard of it happening at all ever.

Hi TBT
Yes we have a name for its called soaking, over years that many have been caught out with bag searching as they go into there local office.its not done or if they do they are very foolish.

Amen to that - I have never done it and TBH cant see why people would. If they are trying to save 5 minutes I have to ask is it worth loosing your job over.

I thought we were talking about mail but this seems to have diverged into some sort public sex viewing/participating names

In the old 2nd delivery days we used to call them "N F C's" -No F......g Chance"

Most of the deliveries I do are each in a small area and not along main roads (I'm a floater).

This means that when you have completed your delivery you come past the houses you mispreped and can deliver it.

With 1st class mail I'd always deliver it, second class and mailsort wouldn't bother me much if I wasn't going near the address again and then I'd just claim that I wasn't sure if it required redirecting.
