JB- continue to review? Sounds ominous. But your voice was the one missing. Wolvesposty (if you are still listening) was imo correct when he said £6 was the peak...in fact the peak of RMG shareholders innocence before the carnage. Now the city (and the world) knows there is more to the full picture. More observations to come....
As the nation's top civil servant sir Humphrey Appleby said in yes minister, this is tantamount to the civil service being delivered to the whole squalid world of professional management!
Hopefully knoydarts(?) is right and there are changes (lots) on the way. What on earth a certain major investment entity thinks of the barrage of negative publicity (you can tell more strings than Thunderbirds have been pulled in that regard) is beyond me
It is time for RM to get back to basics on the letter front and get what little real correspondence is left to the correct recipients on time and to QofS specification. Advertising is an hindrance that should be outsourced to leaflet takers
For shareholders not conversant with Derek's side of the old royal mail, direct marketing sent as economy rebate/mail sort/households was mass advertising sent to virtually every address and was for the most part unsolicited and irrelevant. Known as 'rubbish' in the trade, the only people who hated it more than customers were the posties who had to deliver tons of it on their shoulders. It was ideal material for those involved in identity theft.
Can anyone think of a sign or sticker that has outsold 'NO JUNK MAIL' ?
Besides the often unpleasant weather conditions, there is of course also the van sharing element to this. If a new recruit has to share a van and work for 4.5 hours with a grumpy old pheasant plucker (or the new recruit has ideas of his own about how things should be done)then it won't be a marriage made in heaven . It seems ALL delivery duties are being made van shares-the 8 duties directly outside our d.o. have just moved from trolley to van shares
Oli, has the time come to roll out 90,000 RM e-trikes so they can all work on their own? We (and the environment)certainly can't afford 90,000 vans
Oli, the prime time BBC 'slating' has not exactly provoked poll tax scale riots at the prospect of letters being delivered 5 days a week. The most shocking thing to me was 2 out of those 50 letters didn't arrive at all!those watching must think it very wise to switch to a digital form of communication ASAP.
