Walk testing
Am i right in believing , that a manager from another office would test your walk and not anyone from your own office?
I married my wife for her looks, but not the one she gave me when i said i was going to be a postman.

Re: Walk testing
I was walk tested by manager from another office and guess what......................1hr 15min over delivery span. Still waiting on walk being adjusted but now daily cut off accepted every day.

Re: Walk testing
We had our walks checked by a manager from another office, he did this on the GeoRoute system. My walk came out at 3 hours 40 minutes on the street(bearing in mind I'm on a 28hr contract) so they added 50 something extra DPs and guess what..... after that it came out at 3 hrs 30 minutes .....10 minutes less.... I love managers they can do the imposible straight away ... miracles however take 10 minutes less....

Re: Walk testing
we had one of our walks tested by an independant person and he agreed that increasing this walk would be unbearable with every house having steps.
