Bye bye RM. You'll not be missed. I finally quit.

Post by cyberheater »

After 3 and half years working for this crappy company I've finally quit. My last working day was yesterday.

The working environment is toxic. The managers are bullying conniving scum. The workload is too high and the Union which is meant to be their to protect us are useless.

In short. The worst job I've ever had.

Good luck to my fellow work colleagues. It's been a pleasure working with you. They do not deserve to have folks that work as hard and are as dedicated as you are.

Bye bye RM. You'll not be missed.

A bit harsh and to be honest just shows up the difference between functions in Royal Mail.
Anybody who thinks that a delivery officer doesn't work for their money really is in a different reality.

That reminds me I must try and get off deliveries and into a mail centre! Might be nice if a few mail centre workers were made to do a few weeks on delivery they might find it a bit of an eye opener! :roll:
Union what Union? Do we have a union?

Ha ha. That's too funny. I've worked constantly from the moment I've signed in to the moment I've posted my last letter. No breaks. No time to chat. Just solid hard work. It's been the hardest physical work I've ever done.

Not to mention working in pissing rain, howling gales, thunderstorms, -17c in freezing fog, snow blizzards, treacherous ice etc... Times when in all honestly I expected the managers to say it's too dangerous to work out there but no. They allowed us to work in those conditions but said 'use your own discretion'. Weaselling barstuards.
