mail sort on Saturday's

Post by frankfurters »

Ok so our manager has now told us that we now have to take all mail sort on Saturday's. We have never had to take it before and was wondering if other offices have to take theirs? :hmmmm

Don't do ours on a saturday. That being said it usually only amounts to a small bundle of mail as what was once mailsort is now DSA and has to be taken everyday. :neutral:
Union what Union? Do we have a union?

All mail is due delivery once it arrives at a DO. There is no such thing as mailsort 3 anymore, its called economy.

we started taking all our mail sort on Saturdays around 4 years ago, again it's down to local agreement at a guess.
