Best advice I've seen on here for a while, incredible doorsteppers (and I mean on the doorstep) these guys, a lot must go missing. We need to deliver to neighbours more though, yes you get the odd idiot, but if you know the round you know the people, use them don't P739.

And what if you need to finish on time? Bring in more post people, decent managers and improve the service, not cut it. That will fix most of the problems, not delivering to neighbours which is just unworkable right now.
Run, rabbit run. Dig that hole, forget the sun.
And when at last the work is done. Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one

This should be an urgent upgrade - please give us tracked items with peelable stickers - it takes ages to input a code by hand while slipping them :evil/mad
Also while i'm mad , ain't it about time specials were treated like tracked and delivered next day up to FINISH time not 1pm?
Why are lino's paid full-time ??

Your bang on with the special delivery. Its crazy that they have stuck to 1pm when most guys are not finishing to nearer 2pm. :crazy:

Special delivery 1pm and 9am are premium services, if they don't need them before 1pm or 9 am they will get tracked!

You are joking? We finish at 3:30 now. I thought all post-revision offices did.
