last day on shift and i was on a p/l walk i'd not done before. posted to my old house, old boss and two club mates. after i'd posted my last letter, my partner for the day said "bet that felt good".
no sign of management when i got back, so i finished with the best wishes of a few posties i'd bothered to tell i was leaving. boots are in the bin (they needed replacing anyway), and i'm keeping my i.d. badge as a souvenir.
have enjoyed the job, but part-time hours, part-time pay and temporary contracts can't compete with a full-time job in a fancy events company (managing their website and social media presence)…

Have a fantastic time and best of luck in your new job.

If they expand further, plenty here would probably jump ship so let us know

Run, rabbit run. Dig that hole, forget the sun.
And when at last the work is done. Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one

True colours shown by" MANAGER" then. Perhaps his letter of thanks will arrive today. He may be doing your address as part of his duty.
Good luck for the future.
