Re: Aching legs
Dont have to be icy Sheperdess. My legs feel it the most during the summer heatwaves. 2011 will see the end for many people as we will not be able to cope with extended walks, pulling trolleys etc. Management or CWU Heirarchy have no compassion for us in any way or form.

There is nothing in georoute about age,gender or physical ability.
You are simply a number...if you fall you will be moved aside and someone will take your place.

Re: Aching legs
The delivery side of the job is for younger people only now. Years ago when you had seniority, you could pick an easier city centre walk but all the walks are cr*p now. You don't need ice to make your legs ache, the ridiculously long walks will do that for you, the management don't give a fig about the workforce, proves that this Christmas, they couldn't organise a good drink in a brewery, I'll be polite it's Christmas. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL POSTPERSONS (IF YOU CAN STAY AWAKE LONG ENOUGH TO ENJOY IT) !!!!
