Same as last 30 years and counting. Used to love the job, still has it's moments but too much bickering and bad feeling now.

Two years on deliveries/processing as a postman, 12 years as a PHG/coding and manual and 7 years as a driver.

Now being told by management that those of us who are striking are not being loyal to the company???

Maybe by fighting to save our jobs and future is more loyal than burying my head in the sand and letting :lfo and :cfo do what the fcuk they like....

not on my watch they won't.....

Just over 28 years (28yrs 7 weeks today

)
Where have all the good times gone, long, long, ago.....

P***d off with the way RM treat us mear posties -

- all for the sake of their own greed.

But as they say - what goes around, comes around - please make it soon

But in the meantime - don't let them grind you down

32 years but I'm not boasting. Just went past without me noticing. Don't believe anyone who tells you about the "good old days" - they weren't. I detested RM in 1975 and I detest it now. Problem is I like delivering letters. :cfo

dvbuk,

I think we will all soon have to work until we are 100 just to get our pension!!!

Been with RM for nearly 28 years, now just holding on for VR, can't wait to get out.

15 years for me, 3 in distribution the rest in delivery and at least another 20 to go, if I'm up to it. It feels like I'm falling apart at the seams!!
