Ridiculous to be worrying about this type of thing but I would too. Royal Mail has made it so that there is no room for an honest mistake.

There's a number of 'em on ebay.

Maybe some "enterprising individual" found yours and put it up for auction?

One has a bid of £0.99 so far! :left: Needless to say it hasn't matched the reserve price.

someone lost one in a D.O. near me and though hes gonna face conduct he wasnt suspended and will receive a penalty of some sort. Take the inevitable and dont do it again for your own sake.

Told a manager straight away when I got back, he recons conduct code and I won't get suspended or sacked but I have to admit I'm pretty worried about it. Anyone get any experience of this sort of thing happening and what the outcome was?
2 been lost in our office, no action taken,,,,,the dom says there is no set procedure in place for this sort of thing as it hasnt happened before, not at our office anyways. been told some offices have 'holsters' to carry them, but we havent. no doubt once they outline and ringfence some procedural guidelines, it will be a different matter. get the rep involved, and tell him about this reply.....dont be concerned, you,ll be ok.

That is one good thing about the PDAs................nobody in their right minds would want one (and they do tend to bounce really well :nervous .

A customer handed in a PDA at the callers office, it was posted through his letterbox :left:
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
