He thinks the Courier magazine is crap, and he returns it to sender.

A good few years ago we saw the odd letter being returned which had stamped on it "I haven't got time to read this crap"

Return to sender, after 3 or 4 returns you'll get a letter asking you if you no longer want the Courier.
Job done, no gurning happy faces from fiction land, no letters written by managers. Save the planet etc etc.
It would have more impact than not watching Workplace, easy to do as well.
I'll start the campaign here....

RETURN THE COURIER

I haven't received it for about 4 years. I got fed up of reading about a parallel universe in which postal employees weren't verbally bullied, had manageable workloads, and thought the sun shone out of their lino's rusty bullet holes. God knows what it's like nowadays.

Most annoying is when people write not at this address or return to sender on THE BACK of the envelope :arrrghhh
You only notice when you fold the letters to put through - some people are thick as Si and co

If only all companies could put the return address on the back of the envelope, then we could run them through the machines.

Fold the letters? :no no

I hate people folding my letters when they put them through my letterbox and always try to avoid doing it myself.

These days I end up having to fold loads to get them rigid enough to get through the industrial strength draught excluders that new doors have.

You can't have your machines set up right, ours don't reject most of them, probably between 1/4 and 1/3 reject rate when put through once, could probably get that down if re-fed and down some more if any rejected after being re-fed are hand fed

Excuse me!

As far as I'm concerned it's called doing the job properly.
