Eventually got mine stopped after 3 attempts,stating the contents bare little resemblance of the company and conditions that I work for,seems to have done the trick

IT does have its upsides to it my van got cleaned in and out about 5 years ago and was featured with World Class Mail women can still smell the perfume now! Still don't know where the tenner went though!

Are you hoping it's going to be worth something soon? Probably will be worth more than the shares.

I was going to post about this. We had our WTL this morning and the rep brought something up about a 5 day week and then out manager chimed in with that there's a rumor going around higher up they want to lose 20,000 staff and get rid of Saturdays. Our rep did add on at the end though that we'd be working Sundays before that happened. So maybe the other persons source is the same as mine? Our DoM has heard someting higher up.

Well mines turned up and I can't believe I've actually read it, particularly like the back page where you write in with the strangest thing you've seen on your walk, the winner gets £50, this edition the winner said he'd seen a ghost. Anyway reckon I'm in with a chance I bumped into Elvis last week !

Sundays will be for parcels only not mail so there wouldn't be that many needed to work, so if Saturdays did go everyone wouldn't automatically have to work sundays

Ha, yes, that was f***ing bizarre! And how did that win over a Bengal tiger anyway?

You know what I love most about Courier threads? The outbreak of 'oh, I remember when I used to get that/ just kill it off/ return it to sender/ these happy smiling dipshit people bear no resemblance to the grumpy, miserable f***ers I work with' comments.

Every. Single. Time.

I love it. I'm going to construct a drinking game around it.
