Letter to Branches

No. 1046/07

Ref: 535.07/170

Date: 29th November 2007

To: Branches with POSTAL Members

Dear Colleague

Door to Door During Christmas Pressure Period

Branches will be aware that the current Door to Door agreement, Paragraph 9 states:-



“Royal Mail Door to Door items will continue to be excluded from the Christmas pressure period but will now be accepted for delivery for the first full week in December and from the first clear week after 1st January. This will bring Royal Mail Door to Door into line with other Royal Mail servicesâ€

I've heard we're having to do D2Ds next week, obviously, crap from Pizza Hut, or utter bilge from T-Mobile, is deemed to be more important than a
Christmas card from auntie Sheila, or Granny and Grandad. :mad

A curse on all corporate b'stards like Leighton and Crozier, a pox on all their houses. :Very Happy

B*llocks obviously but once again a sure sign that the agreement is codswallop - RM have no intention of "a new understanding and respect for the CWU reps and blah blah blah........." They aren't interested in negotiation only dictation - they will do whatever they want - some areas will do it and some won't.
