Reason for the D2D changes

Post by templek »

was it because the RM realised too many posties were not doing them, so incorporated in to normal mail? Or did they have a better reason?

I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
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.

Not Domino's, but Co-Op supermarket every week ( A3, folded in half to A4, really thin and floppy, total PITA to prep & to deliver - would still be 1.63p under the old system, even though it's A4 ) and now Sainsbury's are getting in on the act with exactly the same :evil/mad
I don't suppose your mouth bleeds every 28 days, does it?

Mail delivery; those that can, do, those that can't, MANAGE!

Talking to the guys in my office today and apparently a lot of walks have'nt done D2D's for weeks, no time to prep them. Managers don't seem that bothered :cuppa
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
