The stuff from the hub is mixed small and large makes no sense for their strategy. We will still get it early and take the small and the missorts out and put the 3 large to one side for the agency to deliver later most likely to a house we were going to with a small parcel and a letter. It is the most f****d idea anyone has ever come up with.
Had to laugh was a packet driver in the 2000's took loads of stuff then seen 20 people take half what I did with 10 vans told about dogs and dog pegs and how to use them not where the dogs are so expect an attrition rate to the russians in ukraine but that is agency expendable no sick pay!

RM have contracts with companies who can access the Hubs with items up until Mdt or Later , this will result in the LAT Delivery Hubs Delivering Small & Large Items to there Delivery Area

I think it might be just the LAT hubs that getting them. We've heard from other posties other Lat Hubs have got them too.

Manager says its vans for xmas since they couldnt get any last year but it sounds like bs to me.
RM are most likely gearing up to deliver all the Tracked from the parcel hubs should we go on strike? Assuming the agency staff will be prepared to cross the picket lines.
I will request they don’t !! Politely of course 🤣
