Fat Bob Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Now I find out, spent most of the week making alternative arrangements. What a waste of time and money.

northfieldhearts Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Feels like they have been on strike for about a month. Riduculous times of delivery (if they bother to deliver at all). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jambopompey Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 funny thing over the strike, i have had my normal postie delivering instead of a newbie to the round, which has meant that me and my neighbour don't have to swap mail over between ourselfs, when the newbie postie was delivering Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But guess what? from here on out it'll be any other carrier but Ropy Mail. Same here. Spent half a day setting up document delivery via a private carrier and won't be going back to Royal Mail.

gadgey55 Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 So why have we had post only 8 times in 4 weeks? Maybe a couple of reasons. 1) No-one has sent you anything 2) You live on a top flair and your postie cannie be ersed walkin up! 3) Yer Mrs gets the mail from the postie on the street and intercept the credit card statement you don't know about!

kitster Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Am I the only person not to feel sorry for them..you still have a job feel lucky you should do! Causes utter chaos in my work.......

John Findlay Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Hey Wullie you can forget about going on strike near Christmas. Wee Roddy wants this and that and we Fiona wants one of them Nintendo Ds thingies. You think we are doing it all on my wage think again. So get back to work ya lazy bassa as you do nothing around the house when on strike anyway. I think the above is probably the closest to the truth as to why the strike is off.

John I think most of the stuff you posted above would have the postmen in a rage. The postmen are thinking they have been backstabbed again and letting the only ace card they had(calm period) striking at christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most posties work their day off to compensate the strike day. Quite a few were seek they had to come in today, as they had worked their day off already this week! Daz, many failed to appear at SWDO?
