Whats the official word on this? I just want to prove him wrong

I do my local to locals first(got about 10)and take them round to the final frame,which has to be clear(but it aint)before we all go out.We are NOT allowed to leave them untill the next day.

I had a redi that was being redied again. :neutral:

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.

I have some redirections that need to be redirected again. Unfortunately the sending posty covers the name with a sticker, so I have to peel it off to look at the name.

We don't really do any work. It seems crap to charge people for nothing. Surely it would be good PR?
I remember when ALL redirections were free. :Very Happy
But Royal Mail isn't going to give anything free now that they could make a few quid out off to help boost Crozier's bonus. :sad:

On an old walk of mine i had a re-direction for a family that had emigrated to Australia, the thing is they were still recieving letters from the Australian immigration board and prospective australian employers etc... which i was then re-directing all the way back to Oz!
I had a redi once where they were ordering stuff off ebay (I assume) and they were coming from China/Hong Kong and their redirection was to China...
