RMCtv : Nick Landon "Clearing your own frame is fantastic - but can you help to clear the whole office?"

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Clearing your own frame is fantastic - but can you help to clear the whole office because we're tryin to see if each depot can scrape by on a quarter of its own work force , we like to muddle through and wing it , day by day.

Why should I need to help clear the office when all duties are fair and equal?

failing the workforce, failing the public and deliberately failing mail on a daily basis for too many years.

Another way of putting this is "can't be arsed clearing your own frame? Don't worry we'll get everyone else to..."

What planet are these lizards on? We are already on ours knees. No it's not good enough, we need to be worked into the ground to hide pure RM greed and incompetence. It's always the postman who can do more. Aye right.

We've got multiple people gone home over an hour early each day with several runs not even going out. Old habits never die, but at least when early finishes were more widespread, the office would be cleared without question.

I had a quick look before I left.
Of the 20 duties in my section about the equivalent of 5 duties hadn't gone out. (1/2 a duty here a row there etc)
To clear it would take a minimum of 22 h 30. Assuming I didn't slow down at any point. You know - get tired or need sustenance or a wee wee.

I will clear the office when Nick comes and shows me the way. I will be right behind him for every minute of those 22 hours needed.
Pen pushers don't you love them?
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

The main issue, clearly going by that video, is that those at the top realise that Q.O.S. D Day on the 1st September is going to be a massive failure.

Simon Thompson : we always talk to everyone - everyone’s view is more than welcome - but at times, even on the same issue in the same office, I get very different views - perhaps that is human nature - but sometimes the different views can be extremely different - which means it is harder to action any asks...

Unfortunately this is not possible as allegedly managers have been briefed that under no circumstances are they to personally deliver mail.

Apparently clearing the whole office is not their job it's ours.

Maybe when they allow the managers to fill all their vacancies offices might stand a chance :arrrghhh :arrrghhh
