I don't boubt your a decent guy in real life, but I still think your being blinkered. If you read what I've said, and then put that into your own line of work I think you'd be pissed off...
What other option do the postal workers have? Personally I AM getting the fuk out, as I have had enough. But I honestly think that if most people actually spent a couple of days with a posty, then they would change there minds about what we actually do. I will always have the upmost respect for Posties even when i've left.
mate i was a traffic warden for 4 years i think it was,,,,, i will always respect that its can a few times be a hard job,,, but its the LONGEST job ive ever had,,,,,, i was doing it as it was a fucking piss easy job 90% of the time and i couldnt find a job that paied me THE SAME as what i was on without working alot harder for it
but i also know that 80% of traffic wardens where cunts, they was lazy, bent, wannabe bullies who couldnt be a policeman and they had some fucking wrong ways tgo enforce what is actually a law i agree with at times
same with postmen,,, carrying 25kgs ina courier bag,,,,,,,,, well considering the moreyou deliver the lighter it gets,, well sorry that aint hard
you ever tried unloading 500 car batteries, they had a delivery of 300 brake discs, 100 clutches, 700 exhausts systems, 30 drive shafts, 100 oil fliters, blah blah blah blah
we have 2 staff who sort that out,, all they do all day long is wait for it to be counted then stick them on a shelf/hang them up
we pay them the LEAST as its a job any idiot can do
you would fucking CRY the pain that gives your back,,,, i should know cause i VOLENTEER to do it when one of them is off,,,, i do it to help me loose weight and get me out from a desk
but fuck doing that all the time,,,, they do and they never fucking moan either,,, when they fed up they either leave or they learn new tallents and work there way up
our warehouse manager started off doing that job 10 years ago
anyone whos a postie for longer than 2 years is a person who dont want a carreer,,,, after 2 years you should have changed job titles a few times
sorry if i offend but im telling you how it is in life,,,,,, you posties never had to live it till now
