Member Info for PostmanPorsche

Redceo, good morning sir. Your idea of sacking posties who go on strike? They’d have to sack almost all of them! How would that work? Or do you mean threaten the sack? I for one don’t know how this is going to end. In the old days when the RM wasn’t controlled by shareholders we’d go on strike and eventually the govt would cave in. I think some posties think they’re in the same environment. I do wonder what DK is thinking about all this.

Where are you, Isleworth? At my old office they’re 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 £700m 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 it’s only money. I’m not destitute yet.

But I should as I’ve got £88k in this and I’m only a poor retired postman…….with no Porsche anymore….

Probably not..

Only another 21p and I’ll break even……

That sounds promising.

I’ve got a mere 816 you could buy. I’d want £2 each for them though.

Some of us were honourable and wouldn’t do such things. In my 27 year stint I only ever “wagged it” 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 you’re 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 pub’s 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 £15ks worth……I still have them. And a lot more of course.

JB, it’s not untrained postmen who don’t get recorded letters signed for; it’s lazy ones who can’t 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 £4.30 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 don’t know is the simple answer. Hope you’re well too.
