If they are a constant runner, ripping jobs up by taking shortcuts, I will report them, don't care if they are the regular postie.....
The reason for my attitude is they 1. provide a poor service to our customer and 2. put other people in the office under pressure off management, as they are used as the example management put forward when planning revisions, bullying colleagues when they do the job properly (i'm not defending lead swingers here) and are unable to do lapsing, or sometimes complete on their own duty time.....
We see so much reference here to "do the job properly" but those of us who try and give our customers a proper service must play an active part in highlighting people who do not, however unsavoury it is to us.....
I would agree with you Cheetah but apparently considering Packet drivers or any work colleagues as lazy twats makes you potential management material somehow?
Where did I call anyone lazy???????? where did I mention packet drivers ?????? Specsavers me thinks
You seem to have completely missed the gist of my post. What I am against is people running round taking shortcuts either on their, or a colleagues duty which then encourages management to bully the people who are trying to give the public a secure, efficient service, by not taking these shortcuts and doing the job properly, and more importantly PROTECT their jobs.
Running round, taking shortcuts means the job is done quicker put simply, RM don't give a toss about runners taking shortcuts (until something goes wrong, then they deny any culpability), however, they are quite happy to use the runners as examples when disciplining people who do the job properly, as to do so obviously takes more time and care. The runners don't care about us or our jobs, why on earth should we protect them?????? I will back and support any colleague 100% when being treated unfairly, but I will not support an individual who is threatening jobs or subjecting others to unfair discipline so they can do ghost overtime, get off home early or simply score brownie points with management sorry....
Potential management, not me, not against management but am against the way they do and are instructed to conduct themselves when dealing with good, honest postmen and women, I just couldn't do it because I believe in fair and equal treatment for all sorry.......
Please note I directed this post at people who are not doing the job properly namely runners. We are not perfect and all of us make mistakes which I would definatally not go running to managers telling tales to management on genuine colleagues.
It's not me that needs specsavers!
