But for wanting to start early just so customers can have 6 lots of d2d's and junk mail delivered early is just madness. If they are that desperate for mail early they can collect or pay to have delivered before a certain time. 99% of customers would not pay for that service, so there for they get it when they get it.
That is the sort of absolute rot, that makes the postal service so poor today.
How many of your customers on your walk have actually rang your office or have come down to complain that you have delivered too late? probably none. Our postal service is still one of the best in the world. This is the way it is now, stop living in the past.
iam very sorry noctua but u sound a little suspect to me are you m.green? or a clone to the rm party line.

And fitted with the wrong Air Filter, All of our 40+ new vans are always conking out asif no diesel when full, its a nightmare. Apparently they told Pug to fit a certain filter to lower emissions and lower road tax but its no good for them and they'll eventually all be in the garage.

It is the diesel particulate filter (DPF). It doesn't take much researching to find the potential problems, but obviously it was too much researching for the RM.

"If you're buying a new car and plan to use it mainly for town-based, stop/start driving it would be wise to avoid a diesel car fitted with a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) because of the possible hassle of incomplete 'DPF regeneration."

Or maybe the people at RM who lease the vehicles got themselves a nice little wedge,sod the practicalities show we the money,just my thoughts.
