SEALED BOXES?

Post by wakkono »

do you think this time any postboxes will get sealed or will the doms continue to empty em?
perhaps a wee bit of duct tape over the slot would cause major confusion!!!

Doesn't bother me whether boxes are sealed or not. I'll do my IA, come back to work wednesday, and do my hours. No overtime, no car, no
missing my meal relief, and I'll weigh every single pouch, and more than likely cut off, and finish bang on my time. It won't be me that's in for a rough
ride, it'll be the screws. :dance :Very Happy

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.

Sealed boxes I hope so, as the public will have a sign we are on strike and we should get more news coverage.Image

But will sealed boxes really matter. I mean how much comes from the Post Boxes most of the letters now are MS DSA or Bulk very little on delivery side seems have been from a post box.

Probably completely different on collections side but I have never worked in that part of the business anyone got an idea how muc it would affect the volumes.

They'll have to seal the bloody boxes here cause it's bad enough just now when a busy town only gets its main boxes cleared once a day.
