Orange bicycles...

Post by harry84 »

So we now have the famous TNT orange bicycles delivering TNT Mail direct in our Greater Manchester suburb.

Seen a few of them around the last few days, looking a little lost and puzzled and walking round consulting papers (maps?).

From what I have seen elsewhere online, they were still recruiting for postmen/women as late as October. Find it hard therefore to believe that they will be up to date with the area in such a short space of time. Given a lot of their mail comes from banks and financial institutions, you don't want people who don't know what they're doing handling that!

Give me RM, and their well-founded local knowledge and experience any day of the week!

At Royal Mail we get one days training, if that.
