Anybody know if you need a change-over for small vehicles,(I'm not talking about transits but Combos etc) ?

For us guys it's only the high tops that need or used to need change overs.
New guys in our place can drive what they want.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Few years ago but when i had my change over i had to drive small vans (combos)
large vans (transits+sherpas) and 600's(7.5 tonnes tail lifts etc) to pass
i think if your going to drive for royal mail they will make the most out of you and
put you in any van at their disposal.
some drivers or any one from the distribution side may help you more

Anyway GOOD LUCK :wave
