Re: Sun giveaway
The trolley guys are going to be hardest hit with this.
How this was agreed over just 2 heavy days is just mad. Just shows you that those at the top in both RM and CWU are completely out of touch with the postie's workload on the streets.

Rows of houses all bearing down on me........I can feel their blue hands touching me.......All these things in all positions.........All these things will one day take control..........

Re: The Sun Door 2 Doors
How are we meant to deliver a weeks worth of d2d in 3 days when your duty was built to deliver them over 6 days. This means you will be going over the agreed model week every day therefor you are more likely to be cutting off. Then you have 2 days to deliver in essence what are d2d this again will put you even more over the model week. The union negotiated s.a payment for overtime which I think is good but it'll be interesting to see how managers will manage the extra workload on the posties. We only have 2 days to deliver them because much more than that and England will be out of the World Cupclashcityrocker wrote:Yeah!worktotime wrote:we got a letter on the notice board from the cwu over this today , normal d2ds will be delivered on your duty mon, tues , weds and then that leaves Thursday , Friday for this shite , I cannot believe the cwu have agreed to this , f***ing bollocks.
The union should have said we don't care about the work we are losing to TNT or Amazon.
We don't want any new work and we want to finish 2 hours early every day.
Poxy union. It doesn't stand up for what the members want!

Re: The Sun Door 2 Doors
It’s going to depend on how many other D2Ds you get for the week.blisterfeet wrote: How are we meant to deliver a weeks worth of d2d in 3 days when your duty was built to deliver them over 6 days.

The Sun contract counts as 1, so the maximum would be 6 other.
Only 1 or 2 and you’re laughing.
3 or 4 and it’s bearable.
5 or 6 and you’re going to be pushed.

Re: Sun giveaway
Our office of 4 was told about this today
We have 5 lots of d2ds next week and one lot is a magazine judging by the weight it says on the sheet. 1200 drops times 5 (between 2) to get done by Wednesday

It depends on how your model week was set - given that we are now in June.blisterfeet wrote:

It depends on your call rate.
It depends on what resources are put in to enable you to get out in time to complete with the extra workload.
The trite answer to how do you deliver D2D in 3 days is 33.3%/day.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Re: Sun giveaway
Its more about the weight of the d2d than the number of contracts. Looked at the d2d sheet my quote off about 560 calls weighs in a about 33 kgs. With the other 3 contracts the total weight is over 60 kg.

I don't care if they conduct code me for it or even sack me, I have principal's and would rather starve and have no job than deliver that shyte rag.
I would also hope that I would not be the only one who would do this.

sales of bog roll are going to plummet this weekend, why buy it when RM are delivering it for free.

P.S. We should just hope for torrential rain on the delivery days, so the rag is unreadable and the pages stuck together - sort of 'pour' it through the letterboxes....
