We're sorry for any inconvenience and thank you for your understanding. We will regularly update customers on the offices most impacted here:

1

Sandhurst DO (GU46-GU47)
I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
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.

Canna believe these figures, there's posts on this forum saying since revisions have went in that up to 90% of walks are failing to complete, is it they are not being recorded or are things not as bad as some folk are saying?

There’s some set criteria to be classed as officially “in trouble” although I can’t remember what those are.

Units that report three consecutive days of 30% of DPs failing USO gets you on the list and public RM service disruption website. Then you need three consecutive days below 30% to get off the list (well below and back to stable USO).
