Letters might be down, but we are still delivering the same amount if not more over longer walks, if we are to become this all singing parcel business, letters are going to have to take a backseat we just can not do both.

Yesterday we had 3 half trays of sorted letters for our 16 mile walk in 31 degrees, that’s before the flats & parcels :arrrghhh
Mech letters? If they are maybe your walk is one of the DTS ones and a load of mail had hit the maximum of 5 days being held over and had to be sequenced and sent on

Sorry Space Mech letter, DTS, held over & sent on means nothing to me?
We get 2 to 3 trays of sequence mail everyday.

Every MC will be doing it eventually, we won't get any choice. For some remaining MCs it might mean changes to dispatch times

Simon does not deliver he just depresses the workers is this anyway to treat staff he might think for once in his life but it is the workers who get the job done piss the workers off even the best managers will not cope. Time Simo took his snout out of the trough and earn a wage but he is probably playing star wars online!
