[hans solo]

You couldnt make it up
We are now apparently a benchmark for other DOs
We have whole duties left in for days on end
The pods 1/3s not covered left in frames for days
D2ds not even prepped in let alone delivered
3-4 weeks to clear d2ds
Sick leave rising week after week
Overtime spend higher than before DM26
Early otime , leave day working ,dpr otime
All available
Understaffed but got surplus staff ?????
Absolute shambles
Mgmt and employees absolutely fed up
No structure with mail arrivals from mail centres
I could go on
But hey we are one of the better offices

1C and 2C manual letters and flats, T24 and T48 get boxed up separately but the trays go onto the same york. Mech letters, we sequence (walk sort wave 2) whatever has been released by the DTS.

I knew that bloody driver dropping the stuff off at my delivery office was doing a Las Vegas shuffle with the letters, cheers for telling me everything is sorted, I'll kill him when get my hands on him

It's when he looks through for the tray containing the Radio Times or Farmers Weekly magazines, then turns one in the middle of the box and jams it at a right angle to the rest of the mags then replaces the ones on top. I bet it makes his day thinking about it later p***ing himself laughing as he drives back.....

Yeah why does it come like that, is it how it comes off a sorting machine as surely mail centres don't employ people that much of a bell end to think it's normal

Or do they

Its the mail centre mgmt pushing everything out without splitting it
They dont hold anything back
We are left to sort 2nd class not due out

So where is the list of all these successful DM26 offices? I won’t believe it until the postmen working at them say so. We would all be watching RM TV and seeing it if it was actually working.

Even when we're really behind we still split 1C and 2C. If the tray label for flats is yellow then it has been sorted by machine and is a direct tray. The direct trays just get sorted to the relevant yorks, we don't touch the contents. Only a few MCs have got flat sorting machines.

Trays of things like magazines just get flick checked to make sure everything in the tray is for the same DO then the tray goes straight to the yorks.
