  • Don't get me started about the Royal Mail :mad: I worked for them for 3 years and after a mental break down from bullying in the workplace and constant sales pressures I have been "retired due to ill health".

    I only worked on the counters but saw the way post (including fragile special deliveries) were handled roughly by posties and more often than not opened "empty" mail bags only to find unsent mail sitting in the bottom of the bag! Once I cleaned out a supply cupboard and found 7 letters which had slipped behind....from years previous!!

    Frankly I'm surprised any post gets where its supposed too!! But, on a good note, I've received 4 letters this week alone with unstamped stamps....and they peel off so easily :D Hey, I'm just recycling :D

    Oh and about all the other stuff on here, its horrible to see and read. I refuse to take sides as I hold both Korky and sweetie in such high regards. This is a haven for me....I love the people on here, everyone is always so kind and helpful. The main board is ok but this is where I call "home". I hope all involved can get past this and move on to more important things....like winning me a holiday :rotfl::rotfl: Seriously though, life's too short...

    tell me about my mum is now goin thru a dispute after being there 14 yrs or so (bullying in the work place) sometimes i wish she would just retire though she is makin herself ill she had 2 mini strokes this year and the ocupational health blames it on her work... she is tryin to hold on though if the give her e.v.r or whatever it is she should be due a big pay out rather than her leaving on her own accord just not worth all that hassle is it xx
