Well said all the posties
I post letters too
Been on the picket line today and yesterday and 99% was supportive. I love the people who drive past and look at you as if to say get back to fucking work
You got the odd saddo moaning that their giro will be late now.
People really don't have a clue...you think we come in and pick up all our mail in bags all pre sorted and packed etc, go out for a slow walk then go home. I'd love to see how you'd cope on a busyish day, you'd go red, confused probably wanna cry and go sick with stress! It aint as qushty as you think.
If you wanna see lazy bastards then go to a mail centre, not a post office!
The office I work in has around 80 people and I can honestly say not one person there would open a letter and take money from it. I don't know why everone thinks that.
The job has its perks, ladies opening their doors in their undies

But seriously how would you feel about delivering a letter with a different company (TNT DHL etc) pretending they've delivered it? It just seems rotten to me. Why on earth Royal Mail said yes well do that for you...talk about shooting yourselves in the foot!
