What's PSP Woody? Ah the ole people system portalWoody Guthrie wrote: ↑26 Aug 2023, 15:57The rumour that seasonal hours may be delayed is true.
The reason behind it is a hoax.
Apparently PSP/SISO is not all it's cracked up to be, who knew?

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.

Re: Hoax or genuine?
We had the same brief this week. Full timers start 24 minutes earlier, part timers 10 mins, although they are supposed to be doing a max of 30 mins per week extra, but as was pointed out, 5x10 is 50 minutes.claretandblue wrote: ↑26 Aug 2023, 17:04We've had a brief put out today that ours starts on 4th September.
What exactly you can achieve in those 10 minutes? Throw off 2 or 3 walks? Sort 2 yorks of packets? Deliver an extra 50 calls?

What happens to the morons who still insist on starting early for free? Do they have to start even earlier?

Re: Hoax or genuine?
Just this Saturday (26th) We were all given a printed sheet with our new start/finish times commencing 4th September. Maybe at our large office they haven't yet received the memo?
"Just take it out and see how you go......."

Re: Hoax or genuine?
The hours have to even out over a 12month period so if they're going to push it back 8 weeks it will have to extend into February and so on?

Re: Hoax or genuine?
We have several frames that have pretty much a weeks mail in them standard now. How come managers don't have to deliver some like they used to?
They walk past and stare at frames all week stuffed with mail, it's disgraceful
