Posties pay?

Post by itllnottouchyou »

does anyone know what basic pay a postie gets in the center of London compared to say a postie in other parts or the country?

The basic is the same as anywhere else - £372.10 for full-timers.

Perhaps, one of our colleagues from London could tell us what the London Weighting is these days?

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.

Pubs...... :hmmmm pubs.......yes I think I remember them, we used to have quite a lot when I was younger, sadly a dying breed in the North, nobody has any money to buy pub beer anymore, they go to the supermarket now.

It's all relative. London weighting may seem like a major bonus but believe me you are far better off living outside London with a slightly lower wage. Average price for a 3 bed semi round here is over £200k how much is it up north, half of that maybe? :hmmmm
