END of job and finish?

Post by opgpat »

In our DO today we were told to stop throwing into walk frames at 8:30, to leave unpreped mail under the frame and told to tie up and go out. This we did despite the fact that some had no flats or packets in their frames! On gettin back there were guys there who had been told they couldn't go home but had to work till the end of their hours cause the job hadn't been finished - the mail under the frames. Everyone was well pissed off and worked till 1:30 or 1:45 dependin on how much break they had taken.

Another example of RM doing exactly what they like while the national union stands idly by worried about wildcats.

I started at 7 and finished at 3 today, still a full bag of mail in a drop box that the manager was informed wouldn't be done, cut off at 2.35 to head back to the office and walked out bang on 3, job and no where near finished :Very Happy

We just delivered mail that the strike breakers had missorted over the last 4 days and it was heaving, i expect tomorrow to be quite busy, more backlog in a small office :wink:

Same in our office. We were also told no overtime for pressure work. Just take what you can deliver and leave the rest.

Maybe they might come in on time and take their break now and not run around like a lunatic.

Oh so that's where the office is that Crozier was talking about, the one where all the posties can do the job in under 3 hours whilst getting paid for 4 hours . . . . . .well done in letting everyone know, I'm sure your workmates will appreciate that :shock:

Amazing to think "Job and Finish" was the way forward three or so years ago.
