Green Pods

Post by Lounge Lizard »

A colleague of mine tells me that in the neighbouring delivery office he has seen a pale green pod / box / tray / crate / perstop.
I can only assume that such green pods are even rarer than the yellow ones, but
- has anyone on here seen one of the green pods ?
- does anyone on here know the significance or intended purpose of green pods ? and
- will 'Mr Blonde', 'ashadd', 'Patrick Clifton' or someone else be the first to post a picture of one on here ? :Very Happy
Sensible replies only please. :crazy:

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.

I think you'll find that the Green and Orange trays are for Northern Ireland only, depending on your location :nervous

Why do they get all the pretty ones and leave us with the old drab blue and grey ones with loads of coffee stains in them ?

Special Good Friday Agreement ones, otherwise the DUP and Sinn Fein wouldn't join together in government.

You could be right, they must be breeding. Won't be long before they're mucky brown ones roaming around.
