Can someone explain the payment?

Post by MAILMAN84 »

Right guys, I don't get the revision payments. It says £200 for first non sequenced revision? what that mean....sequenced revision i assume is park and loop and sequenced mail etc....

So we now have sequenced mail in our office and park and loop is starting a week yesterday so what is our office looking at in terms of payments? and how long it take to come thru?

Well if you have had a walk sequenced revision.... Opposed to only receiving walk sequenced mail.
You should be :chuckle ... Getting £1000 very soon :chuckle if you have not received any money yet.

Pro rata grrrrr. Yeh well we've had walk sequenced mail, started last monday and were using those stupid trolleys with no brakes a week on monday. We're not doing park and loop but having a driver doing a shorter walk with packets and a walkman doing a longer walk. The last 200 i understand is only if the revision works, and that doesnt look likely.....

How do you fill the trolley if your driver is off doing his own thing?

Lol apparently we'll be using the boxes also. We've to take all the packets for the area on our walk with exceptionals to the driver. Aw don't get me started lol. Our boss scoffed that it would be a lot easier and quicker using a trolley as he manages to do it with his golf clubs with ease.....they don't have a clue :)

So if there are no or very little "exceptionals" that day the drivers get to sod off early while you keep on slogging.
Is your rep a driver? :cuppa

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.
