HAS ANY OFFICE BEEN HAVING RANDOM POUCH CHECKS THIS WEEK??

[smartie]

OUR OFFICE HAS HAD THEM AND TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH IT LOOKS LIKE AN EASY WAY TO GET RID OF STAFF.
SO FAR I KNOW OF TWO SUSPENSIONS.
FUNNY HOW THEY SEEM TO HAVE DONE THIS JUST AFTER THE STRIKE. CANT REMEMBER THE LAST TIME THAT THEY DID POUCH CHECKS.
PREHAPS THE MANAGERS ARE IN FOR A RUN OF BONUSES TO SEE HOW MANY STAFF THEY CAN GET RID OF SO EASILY.

BE CAREFUL EVERYONE, IF YOU HAVE MAIL LEFT OVER AFTER YOUR DELIVERY JUST PUT IT IN YOUR NEAREST POSTBOX DONT TAKE IT HOME!!

[i love mail sort]

Well since i am working to my time i always expect managers to check though my bags, for a helmet or a high visilbilty jacket.

Yes be very carefull.

As long as you send everything back in the blue pouch you shouldn't have a problem. Pouching off is safer than losing your job.

Didnt think we cud put mail in postbox?? i.e. missorts in your bundles on delivery, just say u have 5 missorts , some junk mail and some mayb first class or stamped mail, what do u do with it?? do we go back and deliver it???what if a customer sees a postie putting letters in the postbox instead of as shud be the letterboxes??

[mdtomuk]

I'M ALWAYS POSTING STUFF FOR CUSTOMERS WHO CANT GET AROUND, OCCAISIONALLY, PURELY BY ACCIDENT I MAY HAVE INADVERTANTLY PUT A MISSORT IN, BY MISTAKE - I MEAN SH*T HAPPENS!

[DGP1]

All mail to be delivered unless you have informed your DUM that you cannot do it so to keep yourself right deliver all your missorts.

Not sure that is good advice. i know of posties who have done that,when they were questioned they had photocopies of each item and was dismissed for delaying the mail.

[smartie]

HOW CAN THEY TELL IF YOU PUT IT IN THE POST BOX . ALL THEY KNOW YOU COULD OF MISDELIVERED THAT LETTER AND THE CUSTOMER POSTED IN THE BOX. SAVE YOU GOING BACK TO THE OFFICE JUST FOR ONE OR TWO LETTERS OR ARE YOU ALL THAT SQUEAKY CLEAN, YEAH RIGHT BET QUITE A FEW PEOPLE HAVE SNUCK A FEW ITEMS BACK IN THE OFFICE. SEEN IT TOO MANY TIMES.
OOH I MUSTNT DO THAT!!

Surely the manager is just doing his job. I make random pouch checks every week.

[arsenalbob]

don't think any of us had pouch checks but a few of us noticed on saturday that our frames had been tampered with like re-di cards scattered all over the place as if they suspected we had hidden a letter or something. they wouldn't stoop to that would they?

[wakkono]

need to watch out if your on a 40 hour contract seems to me there is an agenda to try and sack/get rid of as many full timers as possable!!!!

[vigilante]

I hope someone checks your work each week for mistakes.------ah but that dosen't matter if you mess up.
Doing that to the staff every week does not create trust or produce a good workplace enviroment.

[stevepostman]

we had one yesterday morning. havent had for ages.

[DirtyHarry]

What's a pouch check ?

Been so long since I had one , I've forgotten what they're all about !

[shelanda]

My understanding is that if you are within your time and you find missorted letters you are obliged to redeliver. But if you have no time left you should show dom. A lot of those posties running around, coming in early, are bringing back several missorts, soon they will be in trouble, keep warning them but, 'they know best'.
