On the same day this was announced DOMs in my area were told to fail packets rather than pay out overtime.

All I know is I'm certainly 25% more knackered when I get home....and my interest in getting anything done around the house or garden has dropped by 6%! It must be true! :cuppa

What worries me is I still feel knackered on my days off and even holidays! Hope when/if I eventually retire I will start to feel more energised again!

What is to say the job will probably kill you before you retire.

I know exactly where you are coming from, I managed to get out recently after 19 years service.I was knackered all the time and fed up of the way I was treated. I was made to hate the job I loved .
I would love to see those at the top do what the posties have to do,wonder how long they would last!!!!
Good luck I really feel for the posties now. :pray
