Why oh why when I receive my Walk sorted bundles from the MC do I continually have to keep turning the bundles around because the letters are up side down?
Is it the way they are loaded onto the machine?
Can nothing be done?
Am I a petty old git?
I know its a trivial thing to moan about but it does piss me off!
Cheers

Funnily enough I was thinking that this morning - I had one bundle with about 30 letters that were alternately faced, so I had to turn round the bundle each time. We are petty us in deliveries aren't we.

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.

No disgruntled we are not about when your managers bring round the tea, coffee and currant buns, but when we are working. Trays I always thought you had it easy.

Bundle
Come on, you've all done this. Someone shouts "bundle!" and then everyone proceeds to jump on top of each other, until you're left with a big teetering pile of person, normally with one unlucky bugger at the very bottom.
"Look, there's that lamer Gordon... bundle!!"
The things you lot get up to over there

Yes I had that too, but what more annoying, when you get lots missed sorts for other duties, and sometimes they are for other offices miles away at the other end of the country
