new revision duties up

Post by music4essex »

We had our new duties put up on the board to see and make comments, the walk I am on at present does 427 calls
I have had 100 taken off and 200 added, having looked at what was added I have to cover a lot of dead ground so i said to Dim that the parts added on has a lot of dead ground to cover, using a hct would not be advisable his answer was that it will work if you use a car :arrrghhh (not a cdv) or a cycle which i use now, these new duties will be hopefully voted out , but if not I will be cutting off , we are hoping we start new duties after xmas as our dim is going on a cruise for 3weeks later this week , probably using our savings as his spending money .

You won't be using a car - it is against the agreement, cycles may be used in exceptional circumstances - pointless IMO, use the HCT, if you cannot complete within the time book it or leave it. I must say though there doesn't seem to be a lot of delivery points - how long is it timed at?

Some walks are over 1000 drops in our office revision (set to go live on the 4th Nov i might add but the DOM has a meeting on the moon with elvis about finding lord lucan so it looks like they will be elsewhere)

Think yourself lucky...id much rather have dead ground to cover than live ground with loads of extra crap thrown on me.

We had a vote on the duties with a meeting with area rep, they were rejected :nana
