Re: TRACKED ITEMS-Dont Fetch them Back To Office!
I have an opt out sticker on my door so you guys would be leaving me a P739 everyday, how do the managers deal with that one? I don't want my items left with whoever the postie chooses and if I send an item I mark it in large letters not to leave with neighbours.

when you have completed your duty you are supposed to RE-ATTEMPT the item ( so either way ,they want you to work in your own time,either by re-attempting or filling in the "failure" form when you get back!
You would have to be silly to do them in your own time. Its simple when your shift has finished you get payed overtime to finish them or you go home. ☺

If there is an opt-out sticker the postie should take the item back to the office. The DOM will probably pop round later and peel the sticker off though!micksurrey wrote:I have an opt out sticker on my door so you guys would be leaving me a P739 everyday, how do the managers deal with that one?

Managers told they need to hit 95% first time hit rate with tracked. Neither the Union or the business seem to realise this is impossible with our current delivery specification. Total cock up by all parties.

( Its due to RM profits are down.)?
Not so long a go we were told,even if the item said "SAFEPLACE" you would be better 739 them! (it sounds like a U Turn to me?).
Also we were told Amazon delivery drivers work 12 Hour Shifts,7 days a week, for £5 an hour and they don't have a break?--So think yourself lucky!

I Think the next step will be for all the mangers to be issued with taser guns,so if anyone does fetch a traced item back then they will be tasered as a punishment!! or maybe sent to a naughty corner as they do in primary school and write 100 lines.....I Must not fetch back any traced items!!

We have been told to take them to local post offices and get the customer to fetch from there. Not sure how that actually works though as surely you have to scan it as delivered when it isn't?

The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.
