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.

Re: the revisions are failing FACT!!!
the biggest problem is,that so many posties use their cars on delivery.this saves RM millions every year.unfortunately,RM dont factor this into the revision.they see these posties getting finished early,so they think there are loads of savings to be made.wrong!!!!!!!.i know its been said before,but using cars on delivery,has ruined our job.shared vans is the future,it creates a level playing field.just make deliveries manageable.

Re: the revisions are failing FACT!!!
Going live with P & L early next year after postponement after postponement after postponement.
Have any offices actually reverted back to the old way of being out on your own with the bag on your back after P & L has come in (& failed) or have people been forced to carry on regardless van-sharing with HCT etc?

Re: the revisions are failing FACT!!!
Started in the Barnsley office on Monday.Four days in and its a disaster.
Dutys so big they are impossible to compleate.
Piles of mail left and brought back.
Mangers from all over the region shipped in to throw out dutys,deliver mail etc.
"it only needs a bit of tweaking"
Cant wait for the xmas pressure to start

Re: the revisions are failing FACT!!!
Well we went live 8th nov, 4 days in and office is, wait for it yep total disarray, mail left in , brought back, hardly any parcels deliver'd, mail left on ips boards, managers drafted in from god knows where ,to take mail out, half of office this morning didn't get any sequenced mail cos machines went down in sheffield, PAID overtime galore for those that want it, line managers trying to persuade us to take it all ( bless 'em ). Anyway there's no enforced overtime tell yer line manager what your intentions are regarding delivery, return to office 20mins to unload, log off van etc to finnish on time, yes do it all with a smile it really does confuse 'em.

we started this P & L on 1st Nov and we have managers from all over sorting mail, throwing in walks,etc
This week the bullying has started in earnest, managers watching everyone with clipboards; asking you to take everything out every day, even though we keep telling them that the walks are impossible to complete and take back loads of mail; I have had countless 'discussions' with managers who don't have a clue and just bark orders, when I know and they do that 'it just aint working!!!!'
Posties are totally stressed out and are starting to go off sick,
If they continue with this new system in the Xmas period I will be amazed as it is a total disaster!

What happens when someone goes off sick on a van share? Our dom says he'll deal with it when it happens but I still would like to know what the plan of action will be. Does it become a van solo and an 8 hour delivery? Anyone know?

I think you know the answer to that one, they haven't thought it through.
