Amazon now have their own vans (Amazon Logistics) in some areas, they still send a lot through RM but they are testing the water to see if it's viable to deliver it themselves.
I had a book and cd delivered by amazon home couriers today and the rest tomorrow , I actually think amazon are already bypassing us as we are usually rammed by now with amazon parcels

Spoke to a BT friend of mine over the weekend. He said they got sold down the river when they was privatised.
A different BT friend also mentioned having to hit ever increasing and difficult efficiency target and make saving. Then getting a warning for failing to reach target.

Is all this sounding a little familiar?????

I think we are screwed no matter what.

Maybe time to jump ship before we sink with it.

But what's the use of a diary for us ? :sad:
Work, sleep, work, sleep, too knackered for anything else. :sad:
