Park and Loop...Lapsing ?
Any offices been through a full revision and now facing the prospect of "summer" lapsing ? Mainly due to idiots running round to finish early in my opinion but thats another story..

If you have time to do someone else's work before you finish, then do it.
If you haven't the time to do someone else's work before you finish, then don't do it.
I know which of the above two statements, I strive towards.
Simples, as that annoying rodent with the east european accent keeps saying.

If traffic falls below model week levels in theory you will have too much time to do your job....so you can lapse....simples

Re: Park and Loop...Lapsing ?
Thats what I thought but so many people seem to be battering it to get done it seems inevitable and strong rumours in our office its going to happen. Still,the runners will just batter it even more to get finished and so it goes on...Why do people think its clever to save 10 or twenty minutes ? Beyond me and its a vicous circle..steviemac wrote:hang on .... with an indoor revision sorting out IPS and prepping and outdoor revision sorting out delivery how can lapsing occur ?

Don't forget the extra holiday slots with summer lapsing.

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: Park and Loop...Lapsing ?
we have had full revison and lapse 3 days a week in my office but still people come in early and work their breaks.
even though the reps have told them if they did not do this there is a good chance they would not have time to lapse.
