Got masks today but no one is wearing them,absolute madness,when will Royal Mail make it compulsory to wear them indoors in all offices,at the end of the day they are responsible for the health and safety. As the experts say it stops u spreading it,its only a matter of time before a whole delivery office gets wiped out just look at the care homes.

The risk is worse in a MC where staff are sometimes cramped together and apart from break and lunch your inside the same room with potentially 100+ other staff for 8 hoursguardianangel wrote:its only a matter of time before a whole delivery office gets wiped out just look at the care homes.

Seems strange that, maybe less than a skeleton staff at the local MC over the weekend? I would have expected all DOs to have been really busy with packets and Tracked todayguardianangel wrote:Easy day here too finished by 12 ,loving the single vans and no mail![]()

We were really busy with packets/tracked again today. Hardly any mail though so finished earlier than expected.

It was s**t from start to finish.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.
