I had a phone call yesterday, and they said that it seems to be a driver issue at a particular depot. The driver(s) just kept using the same calling/delivery card every time they scanned to say that they weren’t able to make a delivery, instead of using a new/individual one. Which just somehow made them all linked up. Anyhow, they’ve instructed the depot to make sure that it’s done properly now, so hopefully it’s sorted now.

DPD then also sent a cookie with icing on the top with their logo and the words Sorry and my girlfriend’s name on the icing, so that was at least a nice mini bit of PR to apologise for their mess up. Still quite surprised at how easy a thing it is for something like that to go wrong though!

A cookie is always welcome!

I can’t attend any more “awareness” sessions on this.

I promise I’ll be careful with any data that falls into my hands just don’t make me do any more awareness.

Shit just landed today

Got GDPR training on the 16th of May! I think our organisation are going to be woefully under-prepared for this somehow.

Big fan of it being a way of me getting off mailing lists without doing anything

My boss has gone off long term sick so I’ve been lumbered with a load of GDPR working groups. Reassuring that every company seems to making an absolute shitshow of it…except for Wetherspoons.

don’t forget about PECR too though, if it’s email marketing you’re doing…

GDPR is so done.

PSD2 is where it’s at now.

Ah perfect! We’re well on top of general GDPR stuff at my work, and will be fine for the future. But currently struggling with PECR for some of our historical data because we have a few different newsletters, and haven’t been anywhere near as thorough as we could have been with record keeping. Looks likely we’ll lose more than 1/5 of our e-newsletter list because of this (and possibly shouldn’t have been contacting them anyway).

Games console names really lack imagination these days.

Just saw this on someone’s signature: GDPR.cert

It’s the word on the street and it’s all the rage, so let’s talk GDPR.

Apparently my work have emailed 20000 people and 350 responded. LOOOOL.
