    Going to my local post office is getting harder by the day. :mad: I used to go in and go straight to the counter, but now I usually find my self in queues - sometimes for 15 mins or so. The thing is, when I get to the counter, a nice big queue has built up behind me. I usually have about 10 or packages to send off. Now there is only ever one member of staff working there on a weekday. You should hear the huffs and puffs from the people in the queue while I stand there letting the PO guy label up my packages. I feel like a thousand eyes are all looking at me! There is nothing I can do to make the process any faster - my PO should be getting a second person working there soon so that should help, but some people should really have some patience - as I was there waiting for 15 mins before they came along!

    I'm lucky as we have 2 POs in our town, the main one is where you get the huffing and tutting! The small one, where you can park right outside, is excellent, there's rarely a queue, and the staff are brilliant. I went in the other week with my third parcel for that week, and made a comment about Ebay, I was referred to the table out-the-back, where it was piled high with Ebayers parcels. They say it's really good business for them, and they enjoy seeing their regulars! They won an award last year, if I can vote for them this year I will do so!!:j

    Also PMSL @ angelcake!! 36_11_6.gif

    I just ignore them at my PO but then again there it is not normally too bad as its only a village post office - I dont generally care too much about things like that as its MY turn and the post office counter is there for everyone who wants to post thing so who cares what they think!!

    They wouldn't start tutting if you were in a queue at a fish and chip shop and ordered enough food for 6 people whilst they only wanted a kiddie cod would they - well then :rolleyes:

    Has anyone else been asked by the girl/bloke behind the counter "dont spose you go on ebay do you - wink!" - LOL!! She refers to me as one of her "ebayers" now!!

    Oh and the postman said to me the other day (when I opened the door in my nightie!!) (pmsl) "another parcel 4 u... people are gonna start talking ;" -- ugh!! he's not an oil painting either

    Anyway, I'll let you hav ur thread back now Josh - ta ra! :beer:
