Catastrophic revision
Today our revision went live with catastrophic results. Mail bought back no absorption done at all ( even though the management insisted we tie it up and take it out with us ) managers throwing up walks and total confusion as to what the hell anyone was meant to be doing. Some got half a walk others just a loop. This is disorganised chaos at its best. This time last week most absorption was done and no walks and tracks failed, today the total opposite

Same. An hours worth of mail brought back office-wide.
Scan to core is a complete joke. PDA’s barely functional all
Morning.
Mail through the roof since Saturday - COINCIDENCE.

The managers knew full well they would never work, but nodded their heads and followed the orders from above without question.

Re: Catastrophic revision
So why worry about it, you don't get paid enough to worry about it.
I married my wife for her looks, but not the one she gave me when i said i was going to be a postman.

I can't see Scan to Core has made any difference to how our DO's PDA's run, post in my DO also seems to have picked up this week.

Re: Catastrophic revision
They seemed better today to be fair. Maybe it was the launch day and a few teething problem. And yes, Mail and parcels through the roof this week.
We all took the “lapsing” Monday, the new stuff they’ve added. By Tuesday we’ve all dropped it because nobody has time.

I'd remove that if I were you, you've just identified where you work to at least everyone plus management at your office.ANDREW CROCOMBE wrote: ↑08 Feb 2023, 10:18Not yet in our place but this may help 20230207_152625.jpg

Re: Catastrophic revision
Some of our weaker crews have been told they cannot bring any mail back, you take it all out & finish it & don't even consider claiming overtime, bet they are still out there?

Re: Catastrophic revision
We all have a start time and a finish time. Overtime is not compulsory and is voluntary, nobody should be forced to go over there contracted hours. If they do then it sounds like there being pressured into taking it all.
