I've been on a self-imposed overtime ban since last November, a year now. I wouldn't give those b'stards a minute of my own time, and for an inferior
rate, no way. Not anymore, ever.

I think the reason is because the union is becoming more and more toothless by the minute.

I used to be much the same, not any more, im actually finding the job quite relaxing these days, this morning i had one of my busiest days sorting mail into the frame, dum told me just to take out the 1st class

The frame is heaving for the postwoman tomorrow and i know she won't take it out either

Well done, you can only do, what you can do, in the time allowed. Don't let it get you down, your DUM gets paid for that.

Took out yesterdays mail today, had 6 bag drops, it took me well over 4 hrs to do.
The only trouble is i am having customers complaining they are having no mail like ie yesterday.
And when it does come its 3pm in the afternoon.
i have tried to explain i cant do a 3 and half delivery in 2 hrs 20 mins!
It is my fault no one wants to take the rest of the mail out on overtime and it left for me next day??????

Ask your DOM for a contact number for complaints and give them that number. He can't refuse I believe but he wont be happy.

I just give folk the customer services number now wether i am out on delivery or doing the callers office, phoning the dum to complain is pointless

I don't think customer services are much better to be honest
