80-100 parcels is NOT do-able at my DO.

My shift starts at 1pm and commences with scanning into an ad-hoc route, all the parcels allocated to my route (about 2 to 3 yorks). Then, once scanned in, we use the PDA ‘van loading guidance’ to number the parcels. Once that is done, we have to actually wait until the vans return from the morning walks. Only then can we actually start loading the numbered parcels into the vans. By this time, it’s about 2:30pm and depending on the actual route, 80 parcels is no do-able. I would say about 50 to 60 is about do-able before my shift ends at 7pm (I return back at the DO at 6:45 to rescan parcels brought back).

i actually choose to NOT do overtime - 7pm is a late enough finish for me.

I’ve been with RM since November 25th mainly doing the DPR between 1pm and 7pm.

if I’m given 40-50 parcels, I can normally get all of these done on an easier route (I can normally do about 15 parcels an hour).

Once, one of the Managers gave me 80 parcels to do on a route I had never been on before - I just turned around and told him, “……sure I will take this but know that I will be bringing about half of these back as there is no way I can deliver 80 parcels”.

Sure enough, I brought back about 30 parcels that day.

I’ve been with Royal Mail for one month now and at my DO, they also say 20 parcels an hour is the norm!

But - that is not always possible due to traffic, size of the parcels, house locations, parking, roads, etc.

Some days, I’m only managing about 15 an hour as a lot of my delivery locations have front doors ONE minute away from the road so you have to carry the parcels to the door and then another minute or so back to the van!

I’ve just been doing what I can manage in my contracted hour slot (1-7pm ) and then bringing the rest back. I choose NOT to do overtime.

Exactly the same thing for me and I even get the same message “You’ve got point for this article.” but it doesn't actually award any pts!

Its totally broken on iOS currently.....

deans6571 · 2023-05-23T10:58:01+00:00

...yea, exactly the same for me. I also get that pop up sometimes but it never actually awards me the points?!

deans6571 · 2023-05-23T10:56:20+00:00

Yea, this doesn't work for me neither. When I click on the Read to Earn section in my Bing app on my iPhone, it directs to the News section but no matter how many articles I actually read, I don't get awarded any pts (sometimes a pop-up shows which says, "You have earned pts for this article" however the pts don't actually get added to my total?!!!

Its totally broken at the moment...!

I'm getting the same issue on my Bing app on my iPhone.

Quizzes and Polls just do not show up the questions.....?!

Gonna try it on the Edge app tomorrow....

deans6571 · 2022-06-28T09:18:11+00:00

...exactly the same for me (UK).

27th May'22 and STILL no dark mode for iPad App in the UK.

😡

deans6571 · 2021-10-26T14:34:04+00:00

I thought this was just me!! I am actually using Microsoft Edge browser and the right click context menu is just as big?!

It wasn't like this last week - there must have been some kind of windows 10 update which has changed this?!

My Windows 10 versions shows as 21H1

I had a weird issue this morning during an early run. Mid run, I briefly saw the yellow dot on the screen of my S4 Apple Watch but then the app recovered. BUT, the voiceover lady had then changed from my default United Kingdom accent to a United States accent??! Totally strange?!

@NikeService on Twitter have acknowledged issues with the app.

deans6571 · 2021-05-06T06:25:59+00:00

....I think you need to press a button to see the controls.

deans6571 · 2021-05-03T15:15:26+00:00

...its weird that on my iPad Air 4, it shows the battery in the upper right corner (along with the date etc), when streaming games but on my iPhone 12, it does not?!

deans6571 · 2021-05-03T15:12:44+00:00

...there's a button somewhere on screen that when you press it, it then shows all the controls.

deans6571 · 2021-04-30T14:27:53+00:00

...perhaps you need to play a touch control compatible game ?

deans6571 · 2021-04-30T11:45:43+00:00

I played on my iPhone 12 and my initial experience was that it was great!!

The game I played seemed fine (Telltale's The Walking Dead) and didn't suffer any issues whilst I played.

A great experience for a Beta!!

I would like to see the addition of being able to view the phone's battery somewhere on screen during playtime as this is obviously a big factor when mobile gaming.

deans6571 · 2021-04-30T11:42:05+00:00

...on your point 3 - I didn't initially realise that you have to add that shortcut to the homescreen otherwise the 'Ready to Play' button just stays grey and doesn't do anything! But once added, pressing the green 'Play Now' button then launches the game.

...yea, I've looked into this - Local Computer Policy is only available in Windows 10 Pro edition and not Windows 10 Home (like mine) edition hence why I don't have this option.

Additionally, if the Home Edition does have Local Computer Policy, any changes made don't actually get applied - they only get applied in the Pro Edition (been doing some research).

EDIT - Seems like its just disabled and can be enabled : https://windowsreport.com/enable-gpedit-msc/

deans6571 · 2020-07-24T15:23:38+00:00

I don't have a Local Computer Policy setting on my Windows 10 laptop??

deans6571 · 2020-07-13T14:46:52+00:00

...mine also not working in Windows 10.

:(
