French postman in RMC !

Post by turbine 63 »

Hello everybody ,
I'm Turbine , a young french postman. I work in the middle of France in the countryside. I work on 26 tours . Sorry if my english is bad , I had'nt go at school enough !!
I takepart in a french forum of mailmen : www.leforumdesfacteurs.com and we are looking for comments about the evolution of the Post in other countries like UK .
So, I 'll try to read some topics and understand them ( It 'll be a little difficult!!)

A bientot sur le forum !
Turb.

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

Well i never,welcome friend,good to have you on board.

What has happened over here and i will put it as plain as i can is this.

Competition has come in and have taken the best bits off us.
We have a regulator who have tied our hands(The company) behind our back.
We have had mass job losses 45,000 + over the last few years with more to come,possible 30,000/40,000 over the next few years.
Post offices at a very fast rate are closing,2,500 this year.
The service for the customer over all is declining.
I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

And they want to make us work harder for less money.
(Ils voulez nous travaillons plus trop pour moins d'argent).
And they want to cut our pensions. (This is where my French runs out).
I think you are facing the same problems.

La traduction en ligne se balance mais je ne suis pas sûr de la grammaire (je ne voudrais pas que cela se retrouve à un livre de la traduction douteuse)

MURDERERS. Need to dispose of a body? Simply parcel it up and post it to yourself via DHL. You will never see it again.

I used a plan almost as cunning as one of yours, Baldrick - an online translator - take a tip - do the translation and then reverse it to see if it makes sense.
