Carnage on strike day
Might it be fun if everyone sent themselves a 9am special to arrive on 4th November. Imagine the carnage.

Sounds fun to me. What if your outside the office at the picket line and someone walks up to you with it?
I suppose you could always say ''We deliver to addresses, not people'

Re: Carnage on strike day
Sounds like a stupid idea to me as when strikes are announced the counters won't except 9 am guarantee so all your be doing is giving Royal Mail your £5 and your be £5 down in your pocket. Everyone to there own it might help the share price?

Re: Carnage on strike day
use your xmas stamps if you have any left :) also better to send them to posties at opposite end of country, rather than have them loop from post office via mc back to your office, get them to cross through as many mc as possible :)

Re: Carnage on strike day
during the last strikes yes they were not guaranteed but they were the only things that made it out of the door in our office so its worth doing if you want to see people working instead of sitting drinking coffee in your officecloherty1976 wrote:Sounds like a stupid idea to me as when strikes are announced the counters won't except 9 am guarantee so all your be doing is giving Royal Mail your £5 and your be £5 down in your pocket.

You do realise that most posties don't read this forum and would probably find your idea very juvenile? I'd hope so anyway..tiredm wrote:Might it be fun if everyone sent themselves a 9am special to arrive on 4th November. Imagine the carnage.

Re: Carnage on strike day
Careful people. Some members are probably not what they purport to be, and you may be falling into a trap. Don't forget that people have been sacked for comments on here and facebook, and that you are responsible for what you post.
For the lurking managers please comment and join in, you will get flack thats in the nature of your job, but if you couldn't handle it then management is not for you. However, I firmly believe it is good to hear real views from the opposite side as the only way communication works is if both sides are honest and open. Snidey, childish and comments designed to get a reaction are not welcome,although, sadly, we get plenty of them already.
