But the cwu and loads on here said it would be Tuesday delivery of letters that would get dropped! This might be a temporary measure but I bet it doesn't end up being

How's this going to work ? Just drive round doing silly little packets from the van, cost efficient :dance

Surely this should have come in ages ago

Had this sent to me, Honestly thought it was a joke. People on shared van duties. May as well do all packages on both parts & let his mate have Saturday off.

Surely your gonna get round quicker? We have been taking packets from one round on busy days and leaving letters and a 2hr duty takes around 40 minutes to do packets only.

It also means its pointless one half of a van share working on a Saturday if only parcels are being done

The last couple of weeks we've done packets only and by the time we've got out the office it's taken just as long.

If ever there was cause to move on the ballot result, this is it. Sneaking things in under the pretense of easing the pressure. Disgusting behaviour.
