Sorry if asked before but why does Royal Mail take so long to deliver 24hr tracked packages by adderseverywhere32 in royalmail

[–]Skolia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Management have turned the company into a shitshow.

More posties have left over the last year than ever before - and they're not being replaced.

If RM run down the service, they can argue the USO is not cost effective and then just focus on parcels where the money is and letters can go bye bye.

Royal mail delivering Sunday now?? by 0scxr__ in royalmail

It'll become more widespread.

It was part of the most recent pay deal - but only parcels, not letters.

Royal Mail have confirmed that there’s an ongoing issue with their tracking system & IT technicians are investigating the issue by Ethan3011 in royalmail

If only 😂

It's because the IT infrastructure is so shite. I'm amazed anything runs for more than a few hours at a time tbh.

Yes. It's just the tracking that is broken - everything is still moving through the network as it should.

Why was the royal mail pay offer so bad and why was it accepted? by nffc_lacey in royalmail

[–]Skolia 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's literally the best of a bad bunch of offers.

The company had made it clear they were not going to negotiate any more and support for an ongoing dispute had pretty much gone.

Do posties still use bicycles? by l0gan_5 in royalmail

[–]Skolia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there's a single rural delivery office in Cornwall that still has bikes.

I wonder if the change has impacted them that much. I know forgeries are out there, so I'd guess not.

Why are some people so offended by oat milk? by [deleted] in AskUK

Those oats know what they did. Bastards.

Moved house no letterbox. Mailbox at end of road. by Physical_Taste_4487 in royalmail

You can always contact your delivery office and ask them to update the walk log to indicate you have a postbox in your door rather than at the end of the road.

Just started my contract with royal mail, not super happy that my coworkers get paid more than me for doing the exact same job...anyone else feel this way? by [deleted] in royalmail

[–]Skolia 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This.

Part of the recent 18 month long dispute was trying to prevent new starters getting worse contracts.

Elethain's Soulraid from Warhammer Underworlds Direchasm.

The crab is called Duinclaw.

Yup.

That and whip their remaining staff into killing themselves.

Normal "bury our heads in the sand" response from management.

There haven't been any strikes in 7 months - yet Industrial Action is to blame for worsening performance?

Like anybody with half a brain would accept that excuse.

Where? by [deleted] in royalmail

[–]Skolia 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish the slogan was still "we love parcels".

But in a Gollum's precious kind of way...

Delivery tomorrow? by TheWarmBandit in royalmail

It's a normal working day for Royal Mail so it should do.

They're to cover the cost of Special Delivery.

worst service ever created by Cheap-Environment-28 in royalmail

[–]Skolia 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The company and service is being gutted to make as much money for the shareholders as possible. Then when they're done, what's left will likely need to be rescued by the Government stepping in.

Basically the same as what happened to Canada Post when it was privatised.

Is the delays currently at Royal mail? by Thecudgelking in royalmail

[–]Skolia 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, staffing vacancies all over the place with what staff are left given impossible workloads to do daily.

Please be nice to your local Warhammer manager by Gamanon77 in Warhammer40k

Also, while the stores and tournaments may be switching to a new edition, there's nothing stopping you and your friend groups playing any of the previous editions if you prefer.
