Normally people are kept on but its usually just on part time hours and they will just keep you on 3 month contracts. I wouldnt expect contracted full time hours or a permanent job!

Gooner, haven't you made about 3214 threads asking this exact same question over and over? I don't mean to sound rude, but you're just going to get the same answers you did the first 3213 times. It's time for you to make up your own mind.

NNNOOOO dont do it..its going down the hole now...newbies get s**t on big time.. the walk you have will be awful most prob the worst in the office..you will fight to get paid for the overtime you do (and you will do overtime ) and your stress levels will go through the roof...I did it for 3 years that was enough...on a good note though Exeter was one of the better offices (managers ok)...Exmouth was shite (managers arseholes)

Re: should i work for royalmail?
I think you should stay where you are mate unless this move will mean more wages/better conditions for you.From your previous posts you say you are full-time with dpd , you will be swapping f/t for p/t with no guarantee of o/t to make up the hours .As a new entrant you probably will get the rubbish rounds as the best rounds are normally reserved for the old hands who get first dibs because they have earned the right through long service.
Anyway La Poste might buy us and then you can maybe move over full-time as an internal transfer.Good Luck with your decision.

Name of thread sounds like an anagram, one thing for sure though is that if you join Royal Mail, you will WORK.
