Re: pub after work
I think in theory you could be 'bringing Royal Mail into disrepute', but I don't think that it would cause any problem in reality. Plenty of uniformed staff in the pubs around my former MC, after work or during their mealbreak. I used to call into my local on my way home in uniform now and then.

Re: pub after work
None of our lot drink in pubs after work, we all carry their beer with us on the walks.
I staged a Roger Moore impersonator festival in my local village. There were a lot of eyebrows raised, I can tell you.

There's something very sad about that especially how the tossers that filmed it find it funny.BettySwollocks wrote:themap wrote:is it acceptable to go to the pub in your uniform on your way home from work?

Re: pub after work
Think back to your "Big Picture" session leading to delivery methods revision, uniforms were introduced to make posties stand out like a sore thumb if drinking during work hours.

Re: pub after work
There's a clique of guys in my office who go to the pub straight from work and stay there until closing time. They then roll into work the next morning still completely rat-arsed.

Re: pub after work
At my old office years ago we used to start in the pub before work and visit all day. There were 4 pubs and the post office kept them going. Good old days

Re: pub after work
I was introduced to "pub after work" back in 1976 when working for the Ministry of Defence - I've stuck with it ever since (apart from one job in Rotterdam - we didn't go to the pub - there was a fridge in the office).
