Record number of Failed loops

Post by Exrep »

Simple one this lads whats the record in your office for the most failed loops in one day.

Ours stands at 44.

Every office is different so an office of 10 staff failing 5 loops would be worse than an office of 50 failing 10, it's all about the percentages rather than number of loops failed

A good indication of how appalling standards are in Royal Mail.

Profits before customer service unfortunately and this is what happens. Ours got added onto our own deliveries a while back, and it means on some days, we have to insist on having a few loops taken off. Why work past my time till tea-time to get it covered? I prefer doing overtime when I want to do overtime, not when the Royal Mail dictates I should do it.


Anyway, if offices are struggling to get their loops delivered now does that mean there won't be any more lapsing in the future?
On the face of it, shareholder value is the dumbest idea in the world.

Nope cos the runners and the early starters are getting back early showing spare capacity for more lapsing :cuppa
