you should have some sympathy. perhaps their walks are too heavy to do d2d,s during their duty, and they need the money because of the pay cut ( in real terms) that some of you tossers have just voted in. you should be questioning the likes of fat boy hayes as to why his members need to deliver d2d,s on a sunday and stop playing the holier than thou fools you sound to be.

They may be struggling to cope during the week and do them on Sunday as I know a few people who do this,on the other hand they may be the office D2D hoarders who do the D2D's for half the office you know who they are every office has one.

D2D are a nuisance and the majority of people would benefit from them being consolidated into basic,if you are working to time it doesn't matter if you complete them or not as you will still finish at the same time anyway.

The only people who would lose out are those who are gaining 1-2 hours a day which are becoming a rare breed these days,and with the new pay deal getting voted in are becoming even more of a rare breed by the day.

I actually d2d once on a sunday, but that was only because i was delivering leaflets for a friend of mine, so i killed two birds with one stones, funny the birds names both begin with A. Another thing is being dyspraxic I do struggle getting d2d, and once got a warning because i couldn#t complete my d2d. Didn't even care i was dyspraxic, got told if i leave them again i get suspended for delaying mail.

No. Those two w*****s who were delivering D2Ds today, SUNDAY, are the sort of w*****s setting the job back years, and ultimately make it harder
for those who do their jobs properly to do so without some idiotic DUM saying, "Well, if Mr. Shitforbrains can do it, why can't you?, blah, blah, blah."
Those two morons, and many others like them, we can well do without, thankyou very much. :cool

As your post was such a robust defence of those two nerds, may I ask just one question, you weren't, in a roundabout sort of way, owning up to being
one of 'em, were you? :Very Happy

if i had of been one of them i would quite happily admit it and give my reasons. your just not prepared to consider their position are you. as has been the case too often on here the majority who add comments seem to all be of one opinion, and if anyone dares to take the opposite view they get sarcastic comments thrown at them. i am strong enough to take being opposed but there are many , ( especially those that voted yes) who didn,t air their views leaving us "no,s" to think we were on our way to a resounding victory, who are not. how can we ever come to any conclusion about any topic if we don,t listen to both sides? i see that jonnypick, who started the topic, is based somewhere in the south. it is quite possible the postmen delivering the d2d,s were trying to raise money to pay their oversized council tax bills ,set so that northerners ect can be subsidised
