Goodbye Everyone

Post by pickaname »

Ive decided to leave and get another job. My last week at Royal Mail is next week and im over the moon as van sharing comes in the day I leave!!! How about that for timing!

New job is 12k pa more than Royal Mail and a final salary pension - wont have to do overtime to make ends meet and wont have to work my day off which means i can finally see my new born whole days at a time.

Cant say its been fun but the excercise has been a bonus.

Good luck to all those who stick with it - that company is at breaking point so i'd jump ship if youre under 40.

Just want to say thanks to the guys that run this site. You provide a great service and a few laughs so keep it up.

Bon Voyage!

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.

Good luck pickaname in your new venture - but please don't be a stranger we like to get the views of those outside looking in, and even better is that from those who have been inmates.
