What do you mean 1st post ??
You ain't see nothing yet matey! your post will probably arrive around teatime if Royal ( ive lost the plot completely) Mail has anything to do with it!
I think everyone who has critised the Post (maybe with justification in some cases) are living in cloud cuckoo land if they think more choice in the postal service will improve Qof S.........................little prediction from a humble Postie...........IT WILL NOT!!!!!!!! The service as we know it will change forever and for what..........to satisfy a few ideoligists who think The Post Office needs competition to improve the service and bring a National institution into the public sector. Oh how those very same people will yearn to turn back the clock to a business that at one point flirted with 95% efficiency.
Our office at one point started at 4.30 a.m and recieved all our live mail at that time.............even then with deliveries commencing at 7 ish clients wanted their mail earlier..(Business mail delivered by or before 9) How will buisiness react to a delivery at about 12-1?.....and who will have to bear the brunt of this "improved service"? Yes yours truly.....thats if we still have a job or have not elected to leave. We have several personnal contemplating life outside RM because things have gone too far or simply cannot adapt to the new working hours because of childcare arrangements and other commitments!!
No sorry..........call for improvements but Royal Mail is railroading (apt eh) these ludicrous changes that will cost jobs, cut wages, put pensions at risk, reduce efficiency and still not satisfy the public............Have The Royal Mail and the dammed Regulator a Death wish for a much loved institution?
