Is this true that RM have started this week only delivering 2nd class mail Mon Wed Fri?
They’ve just done this without approval from Ofcom or the Government!!
Have the union agreed to this? Or are they still asleep?
If they do this, I hope we’re all prepared to report them to OFCOM, Darren Jones MP, anonymously to the press, etc.
He's too busy now, changed jobs and trying to find a few pound coins down the back of RIshi's old sofa that's been dumped in Whitehall to pay for s**t that needs doing. Chair of the Business and Trade Committee is now Liam Byrne who famously left the note when Labour last left Government saying there was 'no money left' - and there still probably isn't!

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.

That is the most ridiculously convoluted, time consuming while achieving less, load of cobblers.

They carry on as if there is barely any mail. Leaving mail in frames means we will constantly be delivering two days of mail.

It’s also wilful delay.

No.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Why some of you keep banging on about Darren Jones defies common sense.

Jones was only briefly interested as part of his role within the Select Committee.....he has now LONG moved on from that and is now part of the government. He will not be in the slightest interested in RM now!

So Royal Mail management are yet again delaying mail?, but love to use the words 'delay of mail' against us when we don't complete.

The whole company loves to delay the mail, they've been fined for it this year and will be fined again as they are currently under another investigation by Ofcom.
