Post by twobags »

Went to do our lapse bit today where the d2ds where in ,my partner happened to comment on the amount so i counted there were a total of 7 including a trade directory and the dreaded charity bag ANYWAY out of curiosity i checked the book to see what d2ds where down to be done and it was 4. it turns out the managers put in all the excess undelivered d2ds so they have no undelivered items to declare and return [B*$£^*S"ED] and it seems people are ok with it ? :crazy: :hmmmm

Did you deliver them or take out the excess - I spose it can be a ballache to take out just the excess and probably not worth the hassel. One to watch out for though

I think Moya might be quite interested in managers not delivering D2D to correct specification.
Wasn't D2D growth one of the big things at the junket in the Midlands.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

The CWU are bringing it up at a meeting with RM on the 28th.
I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
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.
