Late shuttles.

Post by POSTMAN »

Our 5-45 came in over an hour late today,then the Dom and Lino ran around like headless chickens pulling them in and weighing the yorks ect.
But failed to break down the yorks into letters/flats ect so the figures won't be completely accurate :no no
Reps gonna tell 'em to f**k off and leave it for us to weigh.
Kwikpost has the same MLO as me,Nine Elms in SW London and he has the same problem,as they'e cutting,tipping and boxing up up there.
They just haven't got the staff up there to cope.
Have you guys got any of this happening?

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.

LOST DRIVERS

Post by TrueBlueTerrier »

About 6 weeks ago we had a driver coming from the Bradford Mail Centre who went to the wrong town with ours. Apparently it was his first day and no one gave him directions.

Also coppers once asked me for directions while I wasImage on me walk.

LATE DRIVERS.

Post by smartie »

SPEAKING AS A 600 DRIVER WHO ALSO HAS THE SECOND RUN (MISSORTS)
TO DELIVER IN THE MORNINGS, IN FRUSTRATES ME WHEN OUR MAIL IS LATE IN TO SORT
IN OUR OFFICE . THEN WE SORT THE MAIL FOR THE OTHER SMALL OFFICES . THEN WE LEAVE
LATE. THE MANAGER AT DO'S MOAN THEN, THE LITTLE SHORT ARSE POSTIE GUY HAVES A DIG
WHY ARE YOU LATE BLAH BLOODY BLAH. THERE IS LACK OF COMMUNICATION BETWEEN OFFICES :no no

SO NOW I MAKE THE TRANSPORT MANAGER RING THE OFFICE TO TELL THEM
I HAVE LEFT AND WILL BE THERE ASAP.
JUST A LITTLE PHONE CALL MAKES MY JOB A LOT EASIER RATHER THAN THEM WAITING ON THE BAY
STAMPING THERE FEET AND HAVING A RANT.
BELEIVE ME I WOULD RATHER BE ON TIME UNLOAD THEN GO HOME TO BED. JOB DONE!!
BUT WHEN ONE IS LATE EVERYBODY IS, KNOCK ON EFFECT.

:crazy: :crazy: :wave

I think in this day and age,and what's going on,if you're late,you're late.
More time in the office,less time outside,less chance of cutting jobs ect,ect.:dance

As for short arse Posties tell em....Image

Post by smartie »

OH TOMMO, BELEIVE ME I'M NO SHORT ARSE OR HAIRY, I MIGHT DO A BLOKES JOB, BUT I AM TOTALLY FEMININE. I FIND THE POSTIES WITH THE BIG MOUTHS DO TEND TO SNAP A BIT IF I'M LATE.
THEY PUT ME IN MIND OF A JACK RUSSELL THEY LIKE TO BARK A LOT.
IT'S CALLED SMALL MAN SYNDROME!!

I THINK THEY GET A BIT SHITY SOMETIMES AS THERE ARE NO WOMEN IN THERE OFFICE, AND REALLY THEY WOULD LOVE TO HAVE MY JOB.
THEY LIVE IN THE BACK OF BEYOND, A BIT WEIRD SOME OF THEM.
AND THEY TALK WITH A STRONG WELSHY ACCENT YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN BUTT!!
