Five Lots of Door to Doors as from Monday..

Post by Jenny Manchester »

It was my day off today and my mate phoned me this evening and said its leaked out that most offices in the UK are going to get FIVE lots of door to doors on the week commencing 12/07/2010, these FIVE lots willl continue throughout the year every week, the managers know about it and were told to say nothing to staff.
The phgs know about it as well...its on their Pc.
Monday I Will be taking my time putting them together and stuff the absorption.... cop for that managers, I hope everyone follows suit..

I've only had 3 lots altogether in the last 3 weeks, I very much doubt 5 a week will suddenly appear.

I know about offices getting 4 but there's been no mention of 5. The very week we stopped getting paid for them we got 4.

Some of our walks have had four for a couple of weeks now, and whe I returned today there looked to be a bit more under my bench.

So much for Royal Mail taking the weight off the shoulder, no revisons til Feb, and no park and loop until after xmas, problem is they haven't said which xmas.

Thank you Mr Ward and Mr Hayes for this wonderful agreement which Royal Mail are implementing on a time scale to suit themselves.

I've been on 4 lots since I stopped getting paid for them yet walks elsewhere in the office have 1 or 2 lots. Got back off delivery today and there's 5 lots under my frame for next week. Well since it's all part of the workload now, I'll be cutting off next week when I can't complete on time because I couldn't get out the office on time because I was setting in 5 lots of for an hour :nana :nana :nana

f**k em!

12th July was always quoted as the date 5 D2Ds would hit, so no surprise.

To prep and deliver will take what it takes. If I go over my time, then so be it. I will claim the O/T, no skin off my nose.

Thank you RM and the CWU for increasing my wages!
