Re: The RM fleece
My zip gone on my one too, after a couple of month, so had to take out mouthball one from last year before my break. Great zip.
Quality is s****, but what do we expect when people are working 12 hours shifts for a couple of quid. Royal Mail does offer a quality service to the public though!!!!

Re: The RM fleece
I had a pair of them boots that they supplied, ya know the ones with the zip on the side that looked like they should of had a pair of callipers clamped to them..Got home, unboxed them, slipped them on pulled up the zip. Me and the zip flew across the room and through an open window and into the path of an oncoming steamroller doing at least 3mph. The outcome was horrendous, like a 3D..well more like 1D Wylie Coyote cartoon. True Story.. I was in the Courier!

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.
