Big brother lunacy (PDA)

[nightcrawler]

So a guy in our office today had to go see the manager because yesterday his PDA showed him not moving for…4 minutes!!! WTF Talk about petty.

Tell manager it was meal relief, take your breaks however you want.

[WalkerX]

Did he kick off for stopping for 2 minutes for the 2 minute silence for Armistice Day?

In our office everyone takes their break before they go out on delivery.

Tell them a customer stopped you to ask advice about a service royal mail provide

[clashcityrocker]

Why not just tell the truth like a grown up?

[Acca Dacca]

Tell him nothing. PDA actuals cannot be used to conduct.

Yeah coz RM are doing exactly the same during this dispute.

Tell Him to mind His own business.Having a P—s?

[nightcrawler]

The guy had a good reason - he was in a block of flats that has a large wall of letterboxes in the lobby area - but this isn’t the point. The fact he was pulled in for not moving for just 4 mins is the bigger issue here. If it was say 20-30 mins I could understand, but for 4 mins?!?! I often stop to talk to my customers - how long until I’m pulled in the office?

They can be used to knock off your overtime though. At least they have been in our office for a couple of yrs.

Think a dot is 2 mins and gets bigger the longer you are inactive. If you regularly stop and perform no meaningful work for royal mail outside of your allowed breaks then yes you will be hauled in front of the boss.

They cant have their cake and eat it. They want us to be the friendly community postie who cares about the customers when it suits them.

Well in practice they dont want that, they just want to be able to pretend in their advertising etc that they like us to be that
