Is the courier still a thing? If so are there any grinning bellends in it?

Does anybody actually still read that propaganda rag?
The only times I’ve read it the letters section reminds me of the old Not The Nine o’clock news ( if you’re old enough to remember on tv ) Points of View sketch .
Dear RM these trainers are the best I’ve ever had .
Dear RM I’m so lucky to have the best terms and conditions in our sector.
I mean who sits at home and writes that nonsense?

If they want to save money they can stop wasting money on that magazine.

Also - scrap workplace coach - u could just ask anyone to train someone new for no extra payment - some posties are nice and actually like to help new starts. Why do people need extra pay for that.

Agreed. In my DO the workplace coaches did very little for their weekly premium other than turn up at your frame with a slip of paper if you had missed a scan. Never saw one doing any duty training or showing any interest in new starters etc (in 4+ years), that was left to the rest of us.

Is there a minimum length of service required to become a workplace coach?

Don't think so, the position is supposed to be advertised, like a job advert really, then everyone interested has an "interview" with the manager with the most suitable applicant getting it.......

but back to reality in our office 3 coaches were required and the 3 biggest brown nosers/managers favourites got it, one of them can't possibly do a walk he's the "Phg" and can only work indoors plus to my knowledge the other two have never trained
a new starter.
