Special Delivery

[Lounge Lizard]

Are we meant to always do our delivery in the same order as the fitting or are we meant to sometimes vary this in otder to achieve the 1pm delivery deadline for Special Deliveries ?

any sd you can,t get by 1pm should be given to your line manager let him sort it out.
if you have to go out of your way to del.. one it will increase your del span.
we wouldn,t want that ,you might not get paid your ot

We are asked to vary the route to insure that you make the 1pm deadline

How are you suppose to do before 9 O'clock specials when im not allowed out until 9.30?............

[phantomshare]

you are supposed to stick to the official route for security reasons.
to me that means top left to bottom right

Why are your specials not going out on the vans,i thought that it was normal practice to,especially with the PDA's.

I've started getting the specials that the foot guys cannot get to before 1pm, last week I also got to do the specials for the 2 duties that were sick on my bus, aswell as my walk and all the packets and tracked.

I'm given specials most days (on foot). When I pointed out once that I was unlikely to get there before 1pm, I was told we'll just have to 'take it on the chin'. It's of no concern to me what time I deliver anything, as it's out of my hands. What does concern me is that I have to keep these specials in my bag. It adds weight unnecessarily, and if they are for the end of my walk, by the time I get there they are crumpled and damp.
