Cheers.
Do you not touch it at all and just leave it in the yorks? Sometimes when it isn't due we have to get it sorted up and tray it ready for the next day.

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.

Re: The "How was your day" thread.
If it comes in seperate trays we simply put it back on the york and its pushed to one side. If it appears in your mech we band it up and leave it under the
frame. Simples
Some leave mailsort packets but i prefer to get rid asap so i take mine, but i do have a van.

So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat

Re: The "How was your day" thread.
Fell off bike on round last thursday 
so been on light dutie ie. just throwing off and going. Bruised my wrist and hand when I fell so am unable to ride and deliver safetly. Today I've gone into work full of a cold and feeling like s**t. 
After a while of throwing off, my hand hurting, headache and sneezing I thought is it really worth it, 
why am I bothering. f**k it I went home.

Re: The "How was your day" thread.
Horrendous, 79 packets, loads of sign fors, and loads of people out, so you end up carrying the bloody things twice. and the letters were heavy too, plus we had the councils quarterly magazine as a D2D and they are not exactly light either, and the old hands say it's going to get worse, loads of us cut off today.

Re: The "How was your day" thread.
even if I don't box in d2d's with rest of post I always put the bundles of them in the relevant bags to weight. Incidently I also put my 1.5l bot of water in too. Max weight is max weight.ad0128 wrote:was told by manager d2d's dont count in bag weights

Re: The "How was your day" thread.
Ditto - snack, waterproofs, spare pens etc all weighed and accounted for in the max weight. Looks like ad0128s' manager would not get on with us.mydaily wrote:even if I don't box in d2d's with rest of post I always put the bundles of them in the relevant bags to weight.

Re: The "How was your day" thread.
Wednesday and Thursday both really bad. Loads of packets. Lapsing now cancelled till after xmas. Rained all day today and got home soaking. Panic caused in office due to delay of transporting pouches to their drop offs. Tail backs on a major road due to a jumper off a very high bridge.
