Re: workplan continued
D2D in my office is now an absolute shambles.
For example, many items now come in late. This means there is no one available to deliver them. I wont have time to prep/deliver the extra and my floater wont either. Result - they get dont get done.
Also there is confusion as to what is done when. Each member of staff has been asked to write down which days they do which roads, but some have stated they will do more than the specified 16.6% per day - some as much as 33%.
If im covering their day off for example Im only required to do 16.6% so the rest gets left as I can no longer claim for the excess.
D2D quality is definitely worse because of the CWU sell out.

D2D quality is worse because Delivery Office Managers are too stupid to put in place very simple procedures to ensure the D2D get delivered - as negotiated by their own senior managers.pickaname wrote:

I agree but members are not helping with the old "i like to do them all on a insert day."
good times, bad times you know I've had my share

Re: workplan continued
yeah, thats right, theres two lads in our office(*******) have just got their new duties in the re-pick, using cdv,s, the two duties they,ve picked have a total of 2110 drops. this week they,ve had 5 lots of d2ds each. fortunately for them the revision isnt in yet. but on the bright side, when it is in, then they would have 10,550 d2ds to look forward to for that week. so they,ll REALLY be looking forward to having 6 or 7 lots around christmas time. but at least they get 20 pund extra each for doing them.dados wrote:the D2D deal in time to be recognised as a good deal?Yeah righto

Re: workplan continued
We've got record numbers of returned d2d simply because the manager adopts the "do them any way you want stance"(suits him very nicely) leading to nobody knowing what's been done/not been done,especially on lapsed duties.clashcityrocker wrote:D2D quality is worse because Delivery Office Managers are too stupid to put in place very simple procedures to ensure the D2D get delivered - as negotiated by their own senior managers.pickaname wrote:

Yes it's a very "simple procedure" to do 1/6 a day on a marked frame,but the flyers complain that this "takes longer" so they don't get home as early!

Re: workplan continued
What is funny is managers have been busted for them not being done in some places and in other places managers still don't give a f**k about them and have got away with s**t,quality stuff.
Also regarding some of our colleagues,we do have some muppets in this firm don't we,quality stuff again.

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.

if not i'll watch the news for two dead postmen in NE.
Under the old payment sytem they would have been paid £52.85 each for 3 D2D, for 5 D2D £88 each. we could have all been "D2D barrons" just for doing our own walks.
never mind DSA barrons it is.
