Redceo, good morning sir. Your idea of sacking posties who go on strike? Theyâd have to sack almost all of them! How would that work? Or do you mean threaten the sack? I for one donât know how this is going to end. In the old days when the RM wasnât controlled by shareholders weâd go on strike and eventually the govt would cave in. I think some posties think theyâre in the same environment. I do wonder what DK is thinking about all this.
Where are you, Isleworth? At my old office theyâre still getting tons of packets.
beetrootjuice, ah yes was it called Pegasus? Some computer nerd adjusted my walk to how the computer thought best. I changed it back to how it was.
When will the union acknowledge that the ÂŁ700m profit was for the group and not Royal Mail?
Could it be a trading day tomorrow? I might have a dabble with a grand.
I thought posties were on strike today? We had a delivery of regular mail today in Driffield but perhaps it was a manager.
Scottytom itâs only money. Iâm not destitute yet.
But I should as Iâve got ÂŁ88k in this and Iâm only a poor retired postmanâŚâŚ.with no Porsche anymoreâŚ.
Probably not..
Only another 21p and Iâll break evenâŚâŚ
That sounds promising.
Iâve got a mere 816 you could buy. Iâd want ÂŁ2 each for them though.
Some of us were honourable and wouldnât do such things. In my 27 year stint I only ever âwagged itâ once when I wanted to go on a Porsche club visit to the Airbus factory in Wales.
Great story Ian. Sounds like a boarding school.
Hope youâre well Les; whilst at Fort William visit a pub called The Grog and Gruel. My parents went years ago and returned with one of the pubâs T-shirts for me. Alas it was cut off me during a hospital visit, so my mother promptly rang the pub up to send me a replacement which I still have.
Cheers Tilly, just read that. Keep it going.
I paid 42.5p for ÂŁ15ks worthâŚâŚI still have them. And a lot more of course.
JB, itâs not untrained postmen who donât get recorded letters signed for; itâs lazy ones who canât be bothered knocking on the doors and waiting for a signature. OR the panickers who rush around like loons who tear the recorded stickers off. I personally only think two services should be used, 2nd class or Special Delivery. Recorded is a waste of time.
No doubt the market will put the sp up to ÂŁ4.30 if DK ups his stake near the 30% mark?
Yes, IsleworthSpy, it reminds me of the days of two deliveries. We were out on the first at 7am, having got to work at 5am, you could get rid of your packets as people were still at home, then a quick break (or do half a walk on overtime) then do the 2nd delivery and be back home for noon. Money for old rope, happy days.
Hi JB. I donât know is the simple answer. Hope youâre well too.
