Another way to show how much we are dissatisfied with the way we are treated and the company is run is return to sender. A few thousand of these going back each month will soon make somebody sit up and take notice.

Pointless just throwing it in the bin or cat litter tray each month that's as much use as not voting on your voting slip in my opinion.

My personal favourite this month was the guy who is super-excited to come in every morning to find out how much work he's got because the more he's got the better he feels. Then he rushes to find out how many specials - the more he's got the happier he is! :hmmmm

Isnt it strange,no letters are ever put in about how much some posties dread going in to work,due to the bullying and harressment from management,unachieveable workloads,overtime thats due not paid etc etc. No of course nothing like this will ever be put in.I just wonder how many letters like this are sent in,then binned............ :shhhhh

Not forgetting the guy who says that he considers his colleagues and managers as family

In the job 8 month!
If you tolerate this, then your paid break will be next

Same here, I had to read it twice just to make sure I wasn't hallucinating, I'm sure there were more believable letters when I used to read Viz !

That's hilarious do u think it was done tongue in cheek??

I think I'll write to next months big question who's your best friend at work & why

My best friend is the astro turf lawn at no. 22 coz it's perfect for getting the dog s**t off my shoe that the owner never cleans up!

It rather concerns me that there's a possibility that they might be, thankfully though there's no one like that at my office !

Yes totally agree my friend,that of course won’t make good reading,they are deluded if they think all is well in units up and down the country,only witty banter gets you through the day,I would think any decent managers would be embarrassed by the whole debarkle,but sadly can’t be seen to say that
