Sunday workings

Post by postiebob »

Assume this is national but there doing away with Sunday nights in our office and offering indoor staff 8am till 6pm on Sunday instead, drivers have the chance to come in Sunday afternoon and run mail to delivery offices, has anybody else been told about this, seems a good idea I don't think.

Sunday night working is ending at our MC too, so it probably is national.
