Re: record for earliest start
Can someone explain how that works? Surely it doesn't matter how early someone comes in, they aren't getting out until after IPS has finished?

Re: record for earliest start
But they get out before the people on IPS as they still have to throw their work out while the people who have come in early are ready to go making it look bad for the people on IPS. Would you come in early if you had a job in TESCO'S or SAINSBURYS?BernardBresslaw wrote:Can someone explain how that works?

They don't have to work as hard indoors, because they take longer to do it without getting any unwanted attention off management.
It is less stressful.
In some cases I've known people go out and deliver part of their walk during their meal relief, before the arrival of the second wave, and have to recover the same ground later on, with the remainder of the mail.
It is a little bit of attention seeking.
Some people are a bit funny in the head.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Re: record for earliest start
So what was the reason for coming in 5 hours early...?
Then we can form an opinion on the full facts...?

Perhaps he has such a crap domestic situation, he would rather while-away the night in a cosy sorting office.

"In some cases I've known people go out and deliver part of their walk during their meal relief, before the arrival of the second wave, and have to recover the same ground later on, with the remainder of the mail." or save time and do that bit the following day, some managers turn a blind eye to that practice. Luck aways runs out. Then
