I can’t understand why anyone is on it either. I only know of 1 person at ours who is on it and only know he is as apparently he made an observation about our office on there and was dragged in the DOMS office for a bollocking the next morning for daring to speak the truth.

I don't know if I am crazy, but with Royal Mail's huge network in place.... why can't we become an Amazon within the UK?

Why can't we do retail as well? too much risk trying to compete with Amazon?, too much risk in annoying our customers by taking their customers?

If you wanted to massively increase Royal Mail's profits this is the way to do it, but maybe the risk is too high.

Right now, all that Royal Mail sell is merchandise like novelty stamps.

Not sure if was u, but someone mentioned we could sell Parcel boxes. We could even put barcodes in them to link them with pda when we delivered to them. There’s so much more RM could do with their network.

Because I just want everyone out there to understand that there is absolutely no way at all that royal mail as a company would ever recruit anybody in this company, particularly at the most senior levels that does not care about people, because it's the people here that make the company magical and I just wanted to hear that from me. and by the way, it's true, it's not today's sort of spin it's true, it's absolutely true.
Just a word to the wise Si bud, if you surround yourself with c***s then that is hardly going to give you a broad spectrum of humanity from which to draw from. And I am aware I have not met each and every board member, but those I have do NOT come across as anything other than thugs and smiling assassins. Bullshitting gaslighting flimflam merchants whose interests do NOT reflect any concern for the workforce beyond the depth of s**t that we can drag them out of.
If those are examples of the management you claim care about people (their loved ones nowithstanding) then you are either
A) bereft of any sense of compassion yourself
B) sadly lacking as a judge of character as they're pulling the wool over your eyes
C) you'd say anything but your prayers

I'm leaning towards C atm

Don't fool yourself cos you don't fool us.

Revisions fail = postie's fault
Deliveries fail = postie's fault
Long delivery spans means more sickness = postie's fault
A few months ago the share price falls = postie's fault
Postie's get COVID = postie's fault
Pandemic coming to an end = postie's fault
Postie's want a life away from work = postie's wrong
Postie's don't want to work Sundays = postie's wrong

Si, at some point you and your cronies have said or implied all of that and more. So yet again you resort to lies to cover your ignorance. You do not care about anyone outside of your own little world.
Royal Mail
failing the workforce, failing the public and deliberately failing mail on a daily basis for too many years.
