Goodbye Blueshirts

Post by the undertaker »

Dear colleagues, all Royal Mail employees and customers (not including line managers or DOMs),

The Undertaker has left the building. After 2 years on light duties, (rehab), I have finally become bored with the sideshow which Royal Mail now is and have taken ill health retirement with lump sum, do I miss it? Not on your life!

I have for many years successfully dealt with management, bullying, coercion, racism and down right incompetence and stupidity. I shall in the near future be publishing some of my memoirs which adequately highlight the afore mentioned mannerisms of Royal Mail management, which includes criminality. I have also dealt effectively with ATOS on many occasions, whom I am soon to meet again. I look forward to this meeting and shall dispense the reality to the so called occupational health advisor the reality of Royal Mail today (at my last ATOS health assessment the therapist did record all that I had said, which actually featured in the final ATOS report to Royal Mail management).

I took great delight in waving goodbye to my blue shirts (minus Royal Mail logos) as they were chewed to pieces by the refuse collection monster, which was painted orange, perhaps the future of Royal Mail. The Royal Mail overcoat I am saving for the 5th of November.

Goodbye for now, The Undertaker, ex OPG (former GPO Telegram Messenger).

Good Luck Undetaker :wave I look forward to reading your publication.
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets
