4h delay Heathrow to Accra & delayed again returning. BA staff win on epic inefficiency. Long queues & surly service. Back to @StarAlliance! about 1 year ago via twitter
I wanted to buy a nice jewelery set for my sister at xmas time, It was on a ticket system there was someone being served and 1 person in front and only one person on the checkout. The person being served took ages looking at different rings, trying them all on, the same with the second person. It all got very frustrating I took my purchase elsewhere after standing there for 45 minutes and ran out of lunch break. I understand people want to look at the jewelery but 1 member of staff isnt sufficient at all. about 2 years ago via web
Barclays has got to be the worse, I am a finance manager and deal with many banks. The ques are not too bad, there is usually around 2-3 staff about 3 people waiting, dont know if its just me but its always the people in front of me seem to want to give their life story, whilst asking so many questions about their account taking up lots of valuable time. Some other banks I deal with have some great machines that can answer most of these queries and transfer money. about 2 years ago via web
The Royal Mail might be going through a bit of a bad patch... but overall, is it really that bad? Mail is delivered twice a day AND on Saturdays...and in general you post something and it reaches your destination.
In South Africa, we weren't so lucky. Mail arrives once a day, 5 days a week. And every time I sent or received a parcel for the last year it either never arrived or when it did (very very late) it had been opened and something stolen out of it. My gran even had a pair of socks stolen sent to her by her sister. Seriously.
I'm not saying that the Post Office in SA is entirely useless, I could just have really bad luck. My point is that the UK has a service that works - most of the time. Surely postal workers are entitled to good working conditions and have a right to strike to ensure that they get them?
The Royal Mail is generally very effective and if it takes a strike to maintain that effectiveness, then maybe we should grin and bear it. At least it is only temporary. about 2 years ago via web
I read that the Royal Mail made a special effort to reduce deliveries to once a day at most, specifically to kill the twice a day post. I've had plenty go missing, but it does generally work...although, I quite frankly don't know why we don't get post on a Sunday too. about 2 years ago via web
