We seemed to have an increase in Easter cards this year as well as an increase in packets ,despite Royal Mail not advertising like they used to!.

I find it odd that we do not advertise any more http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gbVFuydEFSQ

and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puR1NpdZYqM

The competitors certainly do http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fu0Ti7-HdLg

A foreign company providing logistics for a "BRITISH" olympics , yeah right, why is that then ?, do we not exist anymore??

The company policy is to whine about the internet taking our business away but do they intend to fight back by pointing out how little worth there is in a happy birthday e-mail or wedding invite e-mail or congratulations e-mail etc etc ?.

I wonder if the company is actually being steered by the ghost of Captain Smith to an intended doom.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

All of our Angard staff are gone now, a pity because a few of them were quite good but were dropped like hot potatoes.

Agreed.
Perhaps we should try and bring the rest of the UK in line with Scotland.
I'm sure you'd enjoy free prescriptions as well.
And also be secure in the knowledge that we at least in Scotland and Northern Ireland are protected by law in the eventuality of dog attacks taking place on private properties.
