Pouching off without returning to the office was part of the SDD agreement.
If the OP's finishing time is 1420 his last letter should be 1405.
POSTMAN loves his "return to the office" speech...let him enjoy it. :chuckle
f) Where deliveries are completed within the agreed office workplan then employees will be allowed to pouch off without returning to the office.

Now now Fishy,i did read that part of SDD.
Means f**k all to me and those at my place,it's a carrot for the non car users.

I think this goes with the reg on the vans malarkey,every revision 'we've' had there is time to return to the office.

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.

As usual everyone applies their own office position to an argument.
Try to think of,say....an office in the middle of an industrial estate.
Fine if you have a car...not so great if you don't.
Your D.O. might be in town A....you live and deliver in town B so...you jump in a van and get driven past your house in town B back to town A so that you can say goodbye to your DOM and walk half a mile out of the industrial estate to get a bus back to town B.
Yeah you're right POSTMAN....madness that "pouching off" business. :chuckle :chuckle

Thing you're missing the point Fish.

Nothing to do with peeps going past their house or whatever because they dont use their car and decide to be driven back to their DO for the sake of it.
That is not the issue here,the issue here is peeps needing to go back to their office.

Pouching off on the street is great and i've done it many a time and suited me fine,but if my car is back at the DO then it don't suit.

Muppet reps and DO's who do not have travelling back times built in to their duties are just that,muppets.

...but you have "pouching off" time. :confused
We used to,(before p&l) get 15mins.
Exactly the same as the drivers got to go back.
That's why i said to the OP his last letter should be 1405 not 1420 if he finishes on the street.

You realise you've been double mugged. :Very Happy
Finishing on the street is an 'option',not a deffo must set in stone no discussion on it.

Yes you do!
and as dutch courage says.....you use your car rather than walk 3 miles back to your DO to pick it up.
and the officials at your branch who DON'T have this problem, lecture about not using your car! :arrrghhh
