Post by deadbox »

As I posted elsewhere.....

Its working.....
Today we had a fair amount of mail.....But allmost all Mailsort 3...some mailsort 2 ....little DSA.....about 10 stamped items.....very few packets

NO mech bundles.....

All the stamped + DSA was stopped in its tracks.....

1st class items taking 5 days now......

And we're not done yet....

We haven't finished with them yet !

Leighton thought he was going to scare a bunch of non unionised checkout girls..........Picking us off one by one, But by sticking by our workmates, supporting one another we can win !
I was sure I'd seen a bead of sweat on my line manager the other day - Until I realised that he had just brushed past me too close

in the south east it's not just the standard 1st and 2nd class that's being delayed, we're now regularly getting special delivery items 1 or 2 days late. . . . . . Royal Mails " flagship " service being affected, perhaps that will get the big boys attention

There was s**t loads at our place tonight, could'nt even walk along the ramp (thats never happened before), the place was full of casuals, not exactly the fastest workers are they :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

What would it look like if any MC went up in smoke ( maybe a casual having a fly fag on the dock )?
I don't suppose your mouth bleeds every 28 days, does it?

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

Over 25000 items failed delivery at Cambridge DO today (Saturday). Almost every walk left either mech letters, packets, piles of flats or all types of mail! Staff were told to take enough mail to keep them going until their finishing time, but no extended was allowed. On Monday the same rule will apply. The DOM expects the backlog to be cleared up on Tuesday. I wonder if he will be disappointed?
I'm a Postman at the Henley Road Delivery Office in Cambridge.

Our managers are cutting off but allowing limited extended to ensure all walks are completed - seems an equitable solution - we've no argument with the customers and should try to cover every address each day we are on duty - even if it's not all the mail available. We seem to have at least a couple of days backlog at the moment.

If you have mail franked by sending companies - check the date if it's a regular despatch/receipt i.e. wages info - I've had one that posted later than usual and tried to blame us for the delay - their franking mark gave them away and my customer will be having words with them about it 'cos she supports us.
We wish to serve - but we will not be servile
