Auditors don't come every day, and when they do , the lazyboy bosses know and it's like they're about to be beheaded for leaving a letter in the building. Wish an auditor would come in unannounced , he'd have a field day. :cuppa
Why are lino's paid full-time ??

The only problem with that is when the Auditor comes round and asks why there is mail on top of the frame unendorsed and your answer is "it's for the school" - well good luck with that little anecdote.
Just put the tray in the van and bring it back if the school is closed,just drive past doesn't take any longer.
What do you do with the tray? The Auditor doesn't restrict the time of his visit.
Write on it "out for delivery tomorrow".

Yep that'll keep him quiet I'm sure. The easiest way by far is to follow the guidelines and write it off.

Well your manager is wrong and if a dispute occurs he'll deny any knowledge UNLESS you get him to sign an instruction to that effect - then forward it to Moya and see if she agrees with him.

He may be wrong but we deliver to about 8 schools and colleges and ALL the staff about 30 know that in school holidays the mail stays in the office,so if a dispute occurs he's :thumbdown :Very Happy :dance

In this climate db I wouldn't chance being responsible for the wilful delay of mail which what you're doing is tantamount to. When the worm turns you're standing right at the front of the queue.
