Yes surely yodel going out of business can only be good news any extra contracts has to be positive surely
Can I just ask where has it been mentioned that there will be a trading announcement this Thursday?
Monday Wednesday Friday mail 7 days packets has to be that’s the only way it makes financial sense
No surprise in the trading update it was obvious it was a good Christmas, but also USO needs huge reform and very quickly
Ye later start times is very strange in our office we been told our start times are staying exactly the same
Yes absolutely packets only on Tuesday and Saturday would really help Royal Mail there must be ways certain duty patterns to accommodate that, it would almost certainly help the finances enormously and I’m sure the public won’t care if they get mail 4 days a week instead of 6
USO needs to go 4 days a week and very quickly no letter delivery’s Tuesday and Saturday or otherwise it’s administration simple as that totally unsustainable in its present fo
Absolutely agree with that comment that peak is now 8 to 9 weeks as opposed to 3 or 4 weeks as it used to be
I think Christmas figures maybe interesting
Ye we getting the £500 bonus in our office
Parcel lockers should instantly get rid of 3000 members of staff in delivery offices no doubt about that Dave ward be tearing his hair out if he had any
Happy Christmas all let’s hope new CEO sacks all the dead wood and we become profitable again and as shareholders we start making some money best wishes all
Well that’s Christmas done for another year wasn’t a bad year I shouldn’t think packets went mad to start with but certainly settled down so won’t be record breaking for packets cards were a lot more than last year but nothing like years ago today wasn’t worth delivering and apparently the mail centre in Chester is empty so tomorrow be quiet aswell
The cut off date was pre determined yes, crazy decision it really is hopefully next year they will learn there lesson and start seasonal variation a week later
Seasonal variation does finish next Saturday December 16th another ludicrously stupid decision by royal mail stop management team
As the previous comment stated although packets are off the scale have to say expected a barrage of Christmas cards to start this week but no there just not there this year it would seem
I’m in 100% agreement with that manager from Liverpool absolutely packets for this Time of year are heavier than any other year that I’ve known 100% and I include the covid years in that, the new CEO seems to have won many new contracts the last month or 2 the body shop TK maxx jd sports to name a few plus that inpost
I no our office has never ever been this busy for the time of year
Just shows you how things vary in different parts of the country if traffic down in your area cause for this time of year it’s the busiest I’ve ever known it in the 20 years I’ve been there
Can’t speak for the rest of the country obviously but our office today was busier than any day during covid lockdown for parcels phenomenal
