If it's a revision there should be templates on how the duty/s works,whether it's a 318 or not is open to interpretation.

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.

Sometimes they are called walk logs, but to be honest a 318 that tells you what you should be doing is next to useless as it won't take account of volume, knowledge of the duty, and even if they do they are trumped by the line on each "as directed" anyway.

Walk logs while not as detailed usually list responsibilities for each duty, and they still have the "as directed" catch all as well.
