FLOW? WTF

Post by Glenno »

Can someone explain to me where in BT2010 it mentions "FLOW" Revision, I stupidly thought that BT2010 was about
WSM, P&L, DM's, IWT, GEO-route, PDA's, HCT's, LWT's, building a new relationship, £1,000 for 2 revisions etc, etc
Now all of a sudden FLOW??????????? WTF... I personally think that FLOW was supposed to be introduced as part of the 2013/15 new big deal and has been brought forward because the revisions are waaaaaaay behind...
Your thoughts please :wave :wave

It's not flow any more Glenno it's Indoor Methods.
Get with the game plan/big picture. :chuckle
It's just another ill-fated attempt to drag out more savings from indoor that aren't really there to start with.
It will cost a fortune,produce the square root of zero,be watered down a few times and disappear.
The mini-yorks,backless frames and trolleys will end up gathering dust in the back of your D.O. and it will be onwards and upwards to the next farce.
The theory doesn't even hold water..if your plan is to eventually sequence 90% of your mail why are you going to need porters and trolleys and backless frames.
We don't even use half of our IPS area now.
I'm lucky if i get half a tray of manual letters on an average day,i think i can manage to porter that myself. :roll:
good times, bad times you know I've had my share

Your forgeting the first rule of middle management.

1- Always invent new ways to do the same job, that way you'll always be needed for the "transitional period" and you can remain employed at a high salary even though you're unproductive.

If the plans actually worked , RM would be able to cull a whole layer of management......and middle managers would be out of a job.
