strike post?

Post by not me »

on another forum ive seen a few posts from people getting mail as normal today.
normal delivery inluding junk mail,so does this mean mail is being sorted,coded and out on delivery?
suposedly from those that have seen them they looked like 'normal' posties so assume uniformed up

There's a few posts on here saying the same thing about their own area.
So seems some offices have enough bods in to do summin at least.

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 think about 60-70% of the rounds at our place went out. There was only 5 of us on the picket line and they all just come driving by and wave and smile at you! so short-sighted.

Pity we couldn`t have have added these figures up from different offices to give an overall picture. From what I`ve read on here it sounds like around 90% were on strike which is very encouraging :Applause :Applause :Applause :Applause
