a major annoyance

Post by PrestwickPostie »

letters in amongst the flats (A4's) with those bloody sticker barcodes covering the customers name or address, the time it takes to get those things off each address must drastically impact on ips rates plus because they are amongst the flats it leads to double handling, where is the common sense in all this who dreams up this idea of modernisation :crazy:
