So I went in at the right time as usual today had my break and put my four lots of households together at the end, after I threw my mail off and when I done my killing off and redirections, then I placed my households in the frame, once that was done the time was 9 40am so I spoke to the manager and told him I won’t finish on time, he said “if you go over I will pay you” I made it quite clear I’m not going over so I left the bottom row in and he agreed.
That’s out of my hands now.
Tomorrow will be the same. Its down to staff shortage at my office, nobody on the ips.
If I was to complete the walk today it would have been a 2pm finish, I don’t thinks so some how.
And they wanted me to do my part of the summer walk as well.
We really need more people like me instead of moaning about it.
SAY NO. STAND YOUR GROUND..
and that is how to hit them
as long as folks work over and make it work they will fudge it through
cuts offs and streaming are the way to show them its not working
I told my lino this morning I couldn't complete, it was quite heavy today and doing 5 lots of D2D did actually make me go out late. Lino wouldn't have it so I left a pouch in the drop point then told him when I got back to the office. Suffice to say he was fuming but I couldn't give a f**k.
When are they going to get it through to their thick heads that this system of 4/5 households and the summer walk is not going to work.
There has been seven full timers gone from my office since Christmas due to sacked/retired/ill health etc, and not one full timer has been replaced, that's more sorting for us in the morning. not forgetting the sickies phoning in..

Done exactly the same thing again today left the bottom row in told the DO manager first so I’m covered, yesterday the late drivers delivered it, so I’m keeping them busy. I’m afraid its going to be all the time this with me until they get us out of the office on time and realise this new scheme is not working.
Pity about all the other gobby gits in my office that shout and make threats all morning so the manager can hear them, then when its comes to crunch time they tell the manager I’ll be going over today Sir.
well done! i went in today to do a walk that is usually done by a complete chump. He had 5 d2d and had already consolidated them into bundles and banded them up under his frame. When I asked about to find out where the frig he gets the time to do that, I was told 'oh he comes in half an hour early and does it during meal relief' What a cock The union rep can't do anything as he's been told its 'bullying'...................

I used to do that, I would actually take them home, and sort them there! But don't worry, I have come to my senses, and no longer do this, if they do not give me enough time at the depot to sort them, then I leave them, simple as that.

When we had the Nights on at our office one guy used to scale the gates at 3 30am in the morning to get in, and believe it or not he was still one of the last out later.
