Can't realy see what the strike is about then if all of the items on Royal Mail's website are untrue.

All I can seeem to find is that the Management are trying to run the business into the ground.

This doesn't make sense, at the end of the day the work force will still be needed. If Royal Mail is sold off the first to go will be a lot of the managers.

Parcel sortation is possibly another area as there is a lot of spare capacity in the 'system' at the moment.

But only Royal Mail have the infrastructure to hit every house every day.

The use of anualised hours is a common occurance in buisnesses with seasonal peaks. It's pretty much required to help a buisness be profitable.
