Re: all revisions suspended.
we had 2 senior managers in this morning telling us the revisions will be in very quickly.
they told us RM only had enough cash to operate for 4 weeks and the implmentation must go through without setback.
our DO has also been valued this morning. apparently they may need to put them up as collateral!!!!

If you get that you should bite their hand off,but 3.5hrs park and loop is near enough impossible unless you put duties in.redspartapost wrote:told at our huddle this morning p&l going in march or april all walks will be based upon 3.5 hour deliverys ,except 4 main door walks which will be 4 hours.new walks going up on wall this week for us to look at.
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.

Re: all revisions suspended.
Re-pick starts next week
Start times look lkie 0700am they didn't mention finish times 1800pm i guess
Pick Duty
Pick duty format (Rotational day off,Wallington etc..) if you are way done the pecking order you won't get what you want and only be left with the s**t times
Once picked no going back.
Then we said they will then add on what they like to duties after that
We also had 1 to 1 with manager
Asked Union rep if he had talked to manager about concerns he said he would do this after the re-pick
Whats going on.

9 people want evr
But if there is evr's wanted i am sure within the law they cannot re-employ anyone for up to 6 months

What a complete shambles
This is fun
So much for a Family friendly company (Iam sure this was said to us before) PLEASE PLEASE LET ME WIN THE LOTTO THIS WEEK go on someone tell me i could leave the job at anytime

Re: all revisions suspended.
My guess is redsparta is a Scottish postie and the 3.5hr delivery will be a result of the tenement study.POSTMAN wrote:If you get that you should bite their hand off,but 3.5hrs park and loop is near enough impossible unless you put duties in.redspartapost wrote:told at our huddle this morning p&l going in march or april all walks will be based upon 3.5 hour deliverys ,except 4 main door walks which will be 4 hours.new walks going up on wall this week for us to look at.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

The problem with a 3.5hr span is the indoor work to fill the gap and the level of part-timers you need to enable it.
good times, bad times you know I've had my share

Re: all revisions suspended.
maybe thats their masterplan, the VERY fact that there is NO going back on a deeply flawed plan,,,, with no plan b to boot. theres only one way out, one solution......privatisation. its their perfect plan, and its all falling into place.fishtank wrote:No it isn't going back DV...it never was.![]()
Royal Mail have basically thrown the last dice with this one...too much money spent...too many ego's on the line...and jobs....no backup plan whatsover.....i'm nervous for the company as a whole because i think the plan is deeply flawed.![]()
