Post-revision NO cars are supposed to be used, even manager's. I recently read it in a CWU regional letter thingy, so it must be true.

The following appeared in the CWU Outdoor E Bulletin Issue 4 March 2012 - Page 4

Q. My office has recently had a Delivery Methods revision. All staff have been told they must use the equipment and private cars has ceased. Recently my DOM has been doing cut-offs in his own car, is this allowed?

A. In one simple word ‘NO’ however we have raised this issue Nationally and explained our rationale so hopefully this issue should cease. Allowing managers to use cars is inconsistent with the message we are giving to our members in that private cars should cease. In some cases the manager may well be the same person telling our members not to use their car. The crux of the matter is that managers shouldn’t be doing a delivery in the first place. If this is happening on a regular basis then something must be wrong with the revision and needs addressing.

Thank you -yeah thats the one. Makes me laugh, the thirty odd loops left on a thursday isnt an indicator that the revision is failing its more an indicator that our people arent up to pace - ask my DOM.

Quite regularly I get asked to use my own car for deliveries.

Ever since we've got in more vans there aren't enough to go around anymore. LoL
