SNOW TO POUND UK FOR THE NEXT MONTH

POSTIES COULD END UP DEAD BUT NO ONES CAAARESSSSSSSS

[coxie]

As long as I die just as I am starting my round and not as I am posting my last letter, id be well pissed if it was the latter

At least you would know both the CWU and RM care though - IIRC they both pay out on "Death in Service"

[DGP1]

All work and no play make DGP a happy postie

And yes, it would be really bad to finish your delivery and then die of the cold................and we'd still get a warning

[stokes11eg]

Aye, and they can bury me in the HCT---and push my corpse back to the office in it!

[estelle]

I couldn't believe how bad it is here today - spent an hour digging my car out of the snow, another while then trying to rock the car back and forth to get it out of my side street and have parked it out on the main road which has more chance of being gritted.

All this just to help me get to work in the morning. I think I need my head examining!

Seriously though, if it's this bad now, wtf is it going to be like when winter hits us proper

Postman who died making his deliveries in a blizzard is remembered 100 years on

[Darren Bent]

Royal Mail will love this as they don't have to pay out pension for the dead postman.

Skint or not, it is this "helping out" which RM will say is making Modernisation work. Don't help them, ffs..

what happens on monday if the snow keeps falling how are we to deliver the mail it going to take longer then the norm so do you leave stuff or take it all out and bring back what can not been done ? we have had a revison in our office and work shared vans what happens if one says i wont do the overtime to clear it and the other one says they will i say f### the overtime let a manger do it

[steven100]

If i was working on Monday, i'd refuse on health and safety grounds, and point to a recent letter sent out by RM. But i'm not .
Walks are too long and management don't care.
