Erm this happens every Christmas. Non-ops managers are either out in DOs, on delivery, in calllers offices or sorting in mail centres.
Never seen or heard of that.
I think it’s some of the offices in Sheffield area that get most volunteers because of the HR departments (& fleet?) are based there. Probably not as many now though. But ask any non-ops manager you next week.

Ah yeah with Sheffield I could understand that.

Sounds like they are trying to plug the Niagara Falls with a wine cork.

How does this even work on health and safety grounds when posties have car accidents, slips, trips.... where's the manager(s) to deal with the fallout?
You have a slip or trip after you've completed half your delivery now and there's no manager at our
place they all go home a couple of hrs at least before the rurals are back.

Their own cars because there is not enough vans, can see a few parking tickets, don't forget to look at the logbooks for all the dogs.
What about PDAs as well?

Can't manage, can't deliver! Utter shite!

Insight: When I worked as a manager for McDonalds in the nineties (having, by the way, come up the ranks as a first time employee), they had a term called internal customer (i.e. staff). We were treated as importantly as customers...Now, with Royal Mail, we have Simon Thompson :wave

It's a Christmas miracle!

Management ran a competition last year to win a Saturday off to be covered by a manager if you registered on Workplace. Took three of them and they didn't even clear it. On this basis I'd say the board has deployed the joker up its sleeve.
The machine stops.

They could just refuse to use their own cars. You cannot be forced to use your own belongings by any employer to do their work surely.
