If royal mail was split down the middle between north and south i'd argue we'd have a healthy company up north and you lot would still be arguing over how much the coffee machine is down there

Why not just cut off the home counties and let you lot get on with it.All our taxes going north.We are fed up with you lot poncing off the southerner's.

Yeah, I read the, "didn't our people do well, delivering tons of shyte in treacherous/dangerous conditions", article in that rag the Courier.
What did you get by way of a reward for your exceptional efforts?
Wasn't a free bun in the canteen, was it?
sense of pride that you never let people down, or the people that are so lonely that all they do is look forward to us coming everyday with a letter, we got thanks from our DOM and local mp, what else should you get? were doing what were paid for!

I'd want 10mins to spend talking to these lonely people, instead of "Alright mate / love, have a good 'un, cheerio!" which is all I have time for nowadays.
I don't suppose your mouth bleeds every 28 days, does it?

Mail delivery; those that can, do, those that can't, MANAGE!

A big clue to how bad the journalism was in this program was the title "Post Office Undercover " - yet I never saw a Crown Office, only Royal Mail Letters Operational offices.
Any little thing , they hope it sticks to make a case of privatisation & " modernisation " , It's all been done before , Court Cases get splashed all over the paper to stir up hatred .

DGP could go out as " Lola " and get into trouble or get into bother with the mac . The local rag would report it and the Nationals pick up on it , it's all B/S but they'll do it .

Run, rabbit run. Dig that hole, forget the sun.
And when at last the work is done. Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one

You got "thanks" from your DIM and the local MP? Well, I'm glad you're easily pleased. The slave-drivers would have you believe that they sending you out in conditions that navvies wouldn't be seen dead struggling through, is what Royal Mail pay you for. Me, I'm no body's mug, least of all a parasite manager's, or a thieving member of parliament's.
