No, all mail is insured, it's in black and white on the driver pack we got from RM recently.

My car is for my leisure use, I didnt spend a lot of money on it for bloody RM's benefit. Not interested in finishing early, take my time, have a few chats on the way round, stroll back just on my time, perfeck. No lapsing for me.

I come in half an hour early every day and use my car for delivery. I annoy my colleagues by frequently taking up their car parking spaces and refusing to move. I always scrub the new blokes or at least i used to. I wont be going on strike because of my ethics towards hard work and a straight backed approach to what I deem decent and decent and good. You commies had better watch out ok. And the daily mail was right ,most of you are skivers and workshy, we are just manual labourers that can read.

Trouble is your rounds getting heavier eg more pkts etc pegasus revisions and its going unnoticed! because your cars taking the extra weight and your just driving a little bit faster everyday and still clearing.
when your on holiday next week and the floater rolls up hes given a bike!
as officially its still a bike job and hes been well and truly stuffed.
