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.

It's not a big office and we don't have much movement staff wise in Wales. There's usually quite a waiting list to move to the offices around here...

Here's a nice rural duty for you :nana :nana :nana

Postman/Postwoman with driving Aboyne

ABOYNE
AB34 5EJ
Job Description

Could you do with more money? Looking for seasonal work? Unable to take on a permanent position due to other commitments?

Royal Mail are now recruiting casual staff to sort and deliver the mail. If you are able to work to tight deadlines while maintaining a professional and positive image, you are the type of person we’re looking for.

Pay Rate: £5.95 per hour at age 18

Contract Length: Up to 12 weeks

Hours of work: As and when required

You’ll be an integral part of our business, someone who has the flexibility to work on a casual short-term basis during times of pressure or staff shortages. You’ll work for up to 12 weeks, as and when required, with no fixed shift pattern or guaranteed hours. You may be required to cover duties at other SPDOs.

You will usually start by sorting the mail in a loud busy environment so you can deliver it later that day. You’ll deliver the mail in all weathers on foot, bike or vehicle, travelling 6 to 8 miles each day and carrying around 8 heavy mailbags a day (weighing up to 16kg). Delivery roles always involve a high degree of physical activity.

You must hold a full driving licence with no more than 6 penalty points.
You need to consider how you will get to work each morning, as public transport may not be available.

Please note, once our maximum number of applications has been reached, this vacancy will be withdrawn.
