Re: Silly Season has started !!
I'm dreading tomorrow. It's going to be rough. I had seven or eight epic parcels per bag today, so if I get that again plus more catalogues, I might end up having a nervous breakdown.

Don't go having a nervous breakdown yet.
Wait until September, when it gets busy.

Don't panic!
Those f**kers don't come out until January. Of course, by then we'll be doing 6 D2Ds a week.

I've said before that this is the busiest 'summer lull' I can remember. What with the summer fall off and the drop in mail volumes, it soon won't be worth going into work. Although in the real world, it won't be worth going home.

Yer got quite a few years in too
But at the same time, the Q still stands: where do you get your info from?
If its a Local thing then fair doos, youve got it sorted
The reason I ask is that there was an issue over this recently and I am on
a info finding mission

Re: Silly Season has started !!
The bb (big books) catalogues have ALWAYS been a week to deliver, since the inception of bb.
Its not local agreement either its nationally agreed.
