You say that in you warm, dry office when we're out in all weathers, to all hours because you lot can't balance out your workload (why does Saturday become the heaviest day of the week with crash mail??)

When your job in the MC has disappeared are you going to come over to deliveries? or would that be too much like hard work :whistle

So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

You could be closer to the truth than you think, it is my estimation that Warrington RDC and Warrington MC could be closed down and merged into a super centre possibly Leeds area, in the next 5-6 years Warrington MC as it is is already too small, its simply chaos in there, not enough bay doors, drivers queuing to take their turn in the bay if they didn't get there early enough, a big massive tent is being set in the back as there isn't enough room in the MC, canteen is too small, expensive and open at certain times usually 3 hours at a time.

My heart goes out to those in MC's affected by the changes,i personally don't know how i would be if my job was on the line,where i could or could not be working,what extra travelling time i would have to have,ect ect ect...

Now i've cleared that up with my personal views,another one is you've done yourself no favours with your post. :neutral:

I have to say that if given a choice between MC and Delivery work I would choose delivery all the time.

No way could I face seeing the same faces day in day out for 6 to 8 or the same 4 walls. Loud machines clattering away and doing the same endless booring task hour in hour out, day on day, week on week, etc.

Much rather be out in all weathers, working with a great bunch of colleagues and the nosiest thing being the managers fart.

just to clarify,i have done deliveries(walks and driving) and worked in the mail centre and also on distribution driving 7.5 tonners aswell as collections(never been a manager though before the usual accusations are posted),so having done most jobs in this place i consider myself experienced enough to comment on these issues so here goes.

we all know that there is plenty to moan about in royal fail and we can all have a good moan when thing get on our nerves but in MY experience delivery postmen/women whinge the most.check out the posts on this site complaining about anything and everything and a large majority are from whining delivery staff.

p.s. how many delivery staff have never done any other job in royal fail but think they are experienced enough to offer up comments on other fuctions when they have never even worked in said functions.
who the hell invests £2 billion into a servic and makes it worse?????????????
you really couldn't make it up!!!!!!!!!!!

It's well documented on the site the state of play with some of our colleagues youwot.
Are we all the same on here as them then?

I know of some serious w*****s at my local MC,does that mean......

It's only because we have evolved and can string words together mate :chuckle
The time has come to stop turning the other cheek, time to stop shaking our heads in bitter dismay, time to stop mumbling our angry words.
The time has come for union.
