Not been to a meeting about this "bigger picture" nonsense but i am guessing it will involve WCM (world class mail) to increase the efficiency within an office.Having less or no accidents within an office, more cut backs, more physical work, and more bullying because your performance is not up to scratch according to their figures. There will be changes but the future aint looking pretty for us posties.

Sounds like the sort of middle class shyte, guaranteed to have me snoring my head off.

The bigger picture, meeting? :roll: Sounds like the sort of arrant nonsense that toffee-nosed idiot, Cameron, whines endlessly on about. :dcfo

I have been to this, and it's like being back at school! It's a total waste of time! They are just trying to make ppl think revisions and changes are for the best! Oh they don't tell us that they get a nice bonus for all the savings made!

Never happen in my DO, Saturdays are too short and tbh the rest of the week is no better but I suppose if they bring in someone to do 2 hours of my delivery then I'll happily sleep through it :Very Happy

RM paid an outside company to come up with this rubbish, how much did that cost ffs??
The Flow system also has been made up very similarly, by the same company.

1.30 O/T has been granted to all who attend 'The Big Picture'
1.00 O/T for Flow.

The costs involved in all this is massive------where's our share money?

Oh it's been spent. :cuppa

Oh and dont forget people, we are all lucky to have a job, mail's down and the end is near unless we all pull our weight.

There, the big picture for you in twenty seconds, not 1.30Hrs

The Big Propaganda.... All designed to make you think DMRs are perfect in every way, unfortunately what is a good idea (bring in vans to handle the increase in packets - obvious progression IMO) is ruined by piss poor bullying management that only consider savings to increase their bonus payments!

Patronising rubbish, typical fare from the middle classes.

I will leave the drivel go in one ear, and straight out the other. :cuppa
