Tzaneen: Three months for applications to reach destination
A Tzaneen college in May/ June advertised a vacancy and many people applied during June, but little did they know that their applications would only reach the college three months later.
Who would have thought that a fastmail envelope would take three months to reach its destination?.
A Tzaneen college in May/ June advertised a vacancy and many people applied during June, but little did they know that their applications would only reach the college three months later.
The LETABA HERALD was approached by the college to report the unprofessionalism of the Post Office.
The HERALD is in possesion of photos which explains the ordeal. Some of the photos have stamps dated June 19, 2018 from Phalaborwa, Lulekani or Hoedspruit and another stamp dated September 28, 2018 from the Tzaneen Depot. This means that the letter reached he Tzaneen Depot in September.
The HERALD does not recall any strike which lasted three months that could be the reason for the delay. The college only recived the applications in October and one of the sources there say they did not even open the envelopes because the vacancy is already filled.
The HERALD sent an email to the South African Post Office head office in Pretoria to get clarity on the matter, at the time of going to press we were still awaiting response. More on the story as it unfolds.
