Re: Ten years service
Get your arse in the papers man,just before the classifieds for a 10 yearer.

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.

I got a very cheap Consignia cert in a frame for my ten years although i had done 14 at the time
I though i got a small gift but maybe not it was a while ago.

Re: Ten years service
I don't remember getting a plastic thing, though I did get a consignia pin badge and I think a framed certificate..............that was after 13 years, they were a bit late. After 20 years I got Argos vouchers.................with which I bought a mini fridge. I didn't get any photos - even though I offered to do a nudey calendar all by myself.
