So many, if it wasn't for junk mail what would be posted??? A parcel van (Parcelforce) needs to be running for each postcode at every depot 8 til 5. Posties could then easily complete sorting & rounds in 5 or 6 hours. Too many posties as well imo at depots. Soon as I hear "We need more workers" all im thinking is 'you're not working hard enough'

If you think that a van needs to be running for each postcode, yiure going to need a lot more vans and ,er, people to drive them. Thought that through before posting didn't you?

A reminder of the rules, specifically:

If someone has a different position to you please respect their right to have differing views, and enjoy yourself when picking holes in their position in a constructive way. We would much rather have a long winded well thought out argument, picking out weak points in someone's position, than have a thread full of 1 line insults.

Just because someone has a different viewpoint or political position to you, it does not mean that they are a 'Manager' or a 'Union fanatic', any posts making such assumptions or generalisations will be pulled or amended and the poster warned. This also applies to posts that are not aimed at individuals but at groups.

If you suspect anyone of trolling do not respond to their posts as this will only encourage them. Most internet trolls post objectionable material or opinions just to get a reaction, if members do not respond then a troll will get bored and leave. If you believe a member is trolling then PM Postman or one of the Moderators.

To be fair, anyone outside of royal mail (99.5% of the population call it junk mail). Even on the government funded recycle websites it's called junk mail. I know I do when Im at home.

So instead of having 1 postie doing all the sorting, mail and parcels for any given area, you would employ 2.

One postie doing mail, another covering the same ground, in another vehicle, just doing parcels.

Well it's an idea. Not really more efficient tho mate!
