Another day of cutting off
Yet another day of just me cutting off, the odd time somebody cuts off on a Saturday but nobody seems to wanna join me in the week, and would rather come in early.
I get abuse from lots of fellow posties for cutting off and really starting to get me stressed. Any advice on how to deal with these muppets?

Re: Another day of cutting off
Hunky i wouldnt let it get to you ,its always been this way .Its sad that the guys who are getting BULLIED are the guys who do there job PROPERLY ,in my office i would say only 10% would do the job properly ,the other90% would moan and cry about getting more lapsing onto them yet the more they put on them , the faster these idiots go In. teamtalks if they start griping about this and that being put onto them all i say is you deserve everything you get .Ive never seen so much hypocrisy in my life ,guys who claim overtime on there delivery mon_fri pull the other posties for ruining duties ,then on a sat finish 2hrs early themselves .Ido my duty as to the book ,i get hounded in the usual manner but as long as i know im not deliberatly dragging my feet the truth will always come to the fore.The sad thing about this is managers know posties are not putting there seatbelts on at all times , not locking van , not taking a meal break etc and turn a blind eye to it all WHY , because a manager would rather have a postie who is running round and not claiming overtime ,than a postie who is doing his job PROPERLY as its more money in his pocket in bonusus ( I WOULD SAY NOT ALL MANAGERS ARE LIKE THAT ,JUST MOST OF THEM )

Re: Another day of cutting off
Same in my office the the guys are in one hour early on the IPS sorting (Getting paid) others tossers are in a hour early working their break and are still out as the final time approaches where I came in bang on time took my forty minutes break and always cut off when I need to do, the thing is once 4/5 lots of D2Ds come in and they stop the one hour special IPS sorting then it might hit home, but I'm having the better laugh at the moment, one thing that does annoy them is cracking jokes to them like "what time is your alarm set for 1am" or add up the hours in the year they work free and change it to money.
