The facts on London Position

Post by Martin Walsh »

Whilst I have made my comments on the door to door into workload clear.

London`s policy on the new agreement is that unless all the outstanding issues on the interim agreement is resolved then we will not be support the new national agreement. We have a very important meeting on Monday with Mangement and Acas to resolve this problem.

If the outstanding issues are resolved then the London Divisional Committee made up of every Branch in London will discuss whether we have a united policy on the agreement. There will be a London units reps meeting on Thursday 25th March to dicuss the agreement. Branch committees will also meet over the next week or so to dicuss the merits of the agreemen and there will be special meetings of the members.

However in our view Mondays meeting will be a make or break situration for the London members.

With regards to Door to Door for a number of years , and as a result of last years action in London door to door quality is on the floor in London with many postcodes not getting more than 1 door to door. Plus in some offices we have door to door barons , 3 employee wages were above 80 000 pounds with one at 96 000 who delivered all the door to door for an office. One employee even had a frame in his house.

Plus in London we have seen that four day weeks and 9 day fortnights are very hard to mantian without an increase in workload. Door to Door will assist in this operation.

We have made this view known at Bounemouth.

Should be a very intresting few days.

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 think this could be a vote winner!

Get some D2D barron in EVERY office then give them all the D2dustbins,but only pay him half of what he gets now......this ensures he` still Full time and maintains his standing in the office :roll: !
I`m surprised HQ havn`t thought of it already.
Royal Mail managers.....about as popular as a t.urd in a swimming pool!
The DDA/Equality Act demands action,NOT words......adjustments NOT Occupational Health referrals.Case No:2505901/09
Royal Mail is an Equal Opportunities Employer..It discriminates against everybody.

If you delivered THREE walks worth of Door to Doors (thats 3.5 x 3= 10.5 hours A DAY not including prepping or conveyancing) 365 days a year, that's every single day, apart from being dead, you earn £32,850. That's using an average of £30 per walk per week, more than most get.

So how is it possible to earn 96k?

He probably started up a rag and bone man type business, got himself a horse and cart, load the cart up with a whole district's worth of junk, then with the aid of his son, delivered the unwanted shyte to unsuspecting householders, and he's rolling in clover, a sort of Steptoe and Son in reverse, they don't take shyte off you, they land a ton of it on your mat. :Very Happy

Lets do some maths!! :Very Happy

£96000 divided by 1.67p per item equals roughly 5748502 items delivered per year!!!!
5748502 items delivered per year / 52 weeks 110548 items per week!!!!
110548 items per week divided by 3 36849 delivery points per week!!!
36849 Delivery points divided by 60 hours equals 614 delivery points per hour!!!
614 delivery point per hour equals 10 delivery points per minute!!!
thats 1 door every 6 seconds

Firstly i goto to say thats not even remotely possible
Secondly and more importantly have team GB signed this guy up for the london olympic marathon yet? if not why not?

And all that's not going home at night, not travelling between walks, no going back to office to pick up new supplies, no prepping, no bog breaks, fag breaks, WTLL (lucky b******) etc etc. . .
