revision gone wrong

[TrueBlueTerrier]

Went live today OPALS diabolical, sorters in at 4 am (4:00 24h) (4:00 24h), still throwing off at 10.15 when I left, saw a CDV at 1715 both occupants still in it. The jurys' out at the mo. It could be worse though, I could still be on deliveries

Royal Mail: Leeds sorting offices 'disaster'

I'm the customer quoted in Chapel Allerton waiting for a camera. I'm not actually in Chapel Allerton, but close by. Didn't want to give the reporter my actual area as I didn't want to get my postman into trouble.
I don't understand, as the new system clearly isn't working, why they aren't going back to the old one that worked!
With Christmas coming up, why not use the old system until January and then perhaps start experimenting with new deliveries.
It's ridiculous how management, with no idea of the reality of how deliveries work, can sit in an office and decide the most efficient way to do deliveries! They obviously have no idea of the logistics involved.
I find in all businesses those 'higher up' have an assumed sense of better understanding, that they can advise those underneath them how better to do their job. From what I gather no one who's 'on the ground' was asked by the management if they thought the new system would work.
It sucks I haven't got my packages, but I feel most sorry for all the staff in the sorting offices, and postmen on their rounds who have to deal with managements f**k-ups

Hi Lucaj, i work down at sheepscar and my advice to you is shop on the high street this xmas cos packets are piling up and will get a hell of a lot worse in the next few weeks. The managers want us to deliver pizza leaflets ahead of packets!!!

[NWpostie]

with that in mind I have ordered a lot of stuff online before revision comes in my area, just hedging my bets here as coming off whats happened elsewhere, if I leave it too late I would be one of those frustrated customers waiting for my packet.
