It's a physical job, it really is as simple as that.

Get an easier job somewhere else, have you really tried the jobs market lately, you will be lucky to find any job somewhere else, let alone an easier one. Why this infatuation with speed, why is someone who takes longer less competent, my cover could finish my round by 10.30, I took till my finishing time, my customers preferred me, because they got there mail, not the mail for the factory across the road, or down the street.

I left because I moved and here were no vacancies in the area I moved to. I would have stayed other wise, but still hate the fact that many people seem infatuated, with getting the job done as quick as possible, and any one who ain't fast ain't pulling there weight.
