At our office part timers don't do IPS or prep rounds. If this carry's on only part time staff will be employed so who will do the IPS and round prepping

Bench sorting is the future. Only takes a few minutes, apparently....Delivery spans will be seven hours.

No frame, just a table. Everything will be walk-sorted. Easy. Anyone who attempts to stay as a full-timer will have such a long delivery span they will be driving juggernauts. Part-timers will be happier....but need another job.

I hope it includes the packets in order, that takes up more time than putting letting into the frame. :nervous

Surely you have taken on the "can-do" attitude as described in the last pay agreement?
