Wil6 Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 Looks like there is another strike coming up. This is just pathetic! So be aware when sending parcels via SAPO. http://ewn.co.za/2015/03/04/Post-office-staff-to-go-on-go-slow
Barry Stuart Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 Is anyone going to notice a difference if they go on a go-slow? Got a big Chainreaction order sitting at customs at the moment. Hopefully it squeezes through before the full strike hits.
MoreTrails Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 Simple - you strike you fired. Will that ever happen - never
Max001 Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 I wonder when the liberal do gooders are going to jump up and down and start posting comments about the poor workers rights and and and crap on this topic.....
Vangar Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 Simple - you strike you fired. Will that ever happen - never While I have zero sympathy for the guys going on violent strikes I do understand some of their concerns. Some casual workers have been employed as casuals for the last 3 years, doing all the work with none of the benefit. Management has failed and needs to be changed ASAP.
2bliss Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Despite reports to the contrary, I think there might be an unofficial strike / slow-strike / something to that effect going on. A parcel was sent to me on 27 Feb via so-called SpeedServices (not my choice). It has yet to show up. Online tracking shows it is still "in transit". Calling the 0860 number is no use, because they never answer. Earlier today I wasted 30 minutes hoping someone would answer the phones. Moral of the story: Don't trust SAPO. Not now and not ever again.

2bliss Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Yip, you got to be pretty stupid to trust them againWhich is what baffles me most - that retailers still use them! I bought a frame and headset from a CPT-based store and the agreement was that the stuff would be couriered. They forgot to pop the headset in the box and then sent it by SpeedServices without consulting me first. So, yeah, I have a frame and no headset thanks to bloody SAPO. To be honest, I'm pretty miffed at the store too!
BDF Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Waiting for a pakkie from ebay - also sent Post Office. Waiting.....
