Re: yet another courier "SPECIAL"
Easy bit of docket though if you get rid of all packets with neighbours easily add another 30 mins to your round. Do management really consider this? If offices up and down the country suddenly had a big increase in hours they'd be up in arms.

Re: yet another courier "SPECIAL"
It's got to be combined with a reduced SA collection later. 100% nailed on. They'll be hopingto make the saving there, although it could increase docket/ot on a round that has collections earlier added to it?mlw wrote:WHAT IS THE POINT OF US EMPTYING BOXES WHEN THEY ARE EMPTIED AT 5 PM ARE THEY GOING TO STOP COLLECTIONS THEN OTHERWISE IT MAKES NO SENSE AT ALLPostieSP1 wrote:This is nothing new rural posties been doing this forever,prob why rural customers prefer RM to the couriers whereas Towns even the couriers don't cock things up as much:p

Heard today it's Amazon that are pushing this, especially Tracked (tracked are all our managers are bothered about as they're getting hassled over it). Apparently Amazon are dangling the carrot of all their Christmas parcels if RM manage a first time delivery rate of over 90% on tracked.

Re: yet another courier "SPECIAL"
How can you deliver 90%+ of packets when people are at work? Even neighbours work.OnAFlyer wrote:Apparently Amazon are dangling the carrot of all their Christmas parcels if RM manage a first time delivery rate of over 90% on tracked.

As for these flyers, Moya must have shares in the printing firm and that chuffing video production firm that provides us with all the childish cartoons and graphics in wtl videos.
Why are lino's paid full-time ??

Re: yet another courier "SPECIAL"
I'd sooner deliver to a neighbour than have a frustrated customer - It's a service we now provide and a long overdue one at that. I've not noticed it adding time to my delivery but it's certainly saved me time messing about checking packets back in and taking redeliveries. Time I can now spend getting the next days D2D's in.
Win Win.
