One of the guys at work wore a TNT shirt out on delivery the other week, managers never said a thing
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

You know, that might not play too far from reality, if that ex-crook, Mandelson gets his way. We may all be working that last (sixty and a half) mile(s) for a plethora of dodgy outfits, while also wearing a plethora of multicolored dodgy outfits, too. :crazy:
We posties do things differently, but we still get shot at!

Our (other) men and women deserve a little more... http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/

On a more serious note has anyone else had the new trousers that are like a canvas sail? The old trousers made me look, well less than flattering, but these new ones make me look like a sack of s**t tied in the middle - and I'm not the only one in my office to complain.

Why do we have Orange Hi Viz, you can get red hi viz and it's rarer so we would stand out more, or has the TNT deal been on the table a lot longer than we knew about ?

Granted m8 but you can also get a lot more other colours as well. The important issue that you have conveniently forgot to mention is regardless of what the colour of hi-viz is, that it has so far solely the Royal Mail logo on the rear side. I also regard the orange hi-viz as brighter than the red ones and as a safety rep see this as an important issue.
