Exactly. These car/van derived walks are just another name for starburst. Isn't it weird how RM make a proposal that is rejected, then years later the same idea re-surfaces in a different guise.

Not really, considering the mugs we have negotiating away our terms & conditions this last decade.
The motto of the scuzzy w*****s in senior management must be, "If at first you don't succeed, try again a little later, because we're dealing with the terminally short-sighted."

:crazy: Aye--and don't forget the long and shorts----they've not got anything right so far, and pound to a penny, in a couple of years I can see them introducing a retrospective early start ,two deliveries a day system.!

Anyone else remember the "Employee agenda", how much of that crap are we actually doing now?

The union has a habit of kicking things into the long grass while letting the grass grow under our feet.

I can see 2 delvieries a day coming back in when WSMs dont do what Royal Mail thought they would.

You will take out the first 60% plus packets and d2d on your first delivery and the remaining 40% DSA/MS3 in the second.

RM will jazz it up and call it something fancy but essentialy we will be going back to 2 daily deliveries.

I am wondering

Is there a successful and good idea from Royal Mail for last two years. As there are lot of bad ideas.
