It was one of the specialist duties in the Way Forward agreement - see page 31 of the agreement linked at http://www.royalmailchat.co.uk/communit ... 41#p557598

Run, run away and don't look back.

Not sure if there is an official policy apart from its counted as a specialist duty. At our place they interview people who apply for it if there is ever a vacancy and then selection is based on skills and the interview - not on seniority except as a tie break.

Don't work in the callers office. You will end up a miserable c*nt, just like the guys in our callers office. Maybe it's cause they see posties coing back and goign home early when they are stuck in there until their time. Who knows. Bunch of grumps.
