WHO'S LOOKING FORWARD TO XMAS !!!!!!

[barrowc]

The Way Forward Agreement says:

The leave year will be April to March. The Christmas pressure period, determined by the operational unit, will be a closed period for leave. The selection process should be complete by the end of the preceding October each year.

[Mr Incognito]

Annual leave in December?

Same in MCs, I've always assumed that there was a blanket ban on any holidays during xmas pressure weeks throughout the country

My office has the wallington agreement (1 week in six off) so it is possible for our rest weeks to fall during the xmas mayhem (as mine does this year).

Christmas is going to be a nightmare, as usual

[Rudolph_Hucker]

Hols not allowed in our office in December, oh no!

[chooch]

3 months to go so 15 months since we were 'amalgamated' and 'revision' kicked-in -
F**k, I can hardly wait!

It's only the pleasure of a New day Every day fuelled by the utter and total incompetence of 'management' that'll keep me sane 'til then

[k979aaa]

I am with the strikes all the packets left in the office and our happy customers asking for their parcels still moya can look at the share price and say it's worth it!.

Worked last Christmas with the new revision.Believe me it will be worse than a nightmare!!!Even the thought of it again makes me feel ill

[DICK43]

Just had our revision, been in one week!, five hour+ delivery span that I was told would be only four hours 10 mins, many posties in our office running around like blue arse flies, still carrying pouches on their backs trying to make it work. Sorry, little Timmy, I ain`t Santa, your momma`s going to have to get in the car and go to the shops and fetch your flipping xbox one herself this year!!..

Just cut off, we did numerous times last Christmas. The most we cut off was half a walk and 50 van packets

And that's a big part of the problem with the revisions, it makes them look like they work better then they do so why would the DOMs or planners change them?
