Posties
Turbo Mini Forums

Just been sat in my front room, and heard a bit of commotion in the hallway at the front door

Went out to see what it was, and the postie has put a couple of envelopes throught he postbox, and was in the middle of trying to force a jiffy bag/parcel through

Before i could get there to open the door, i heard glass crack/shatter, so i open the door and the postie is walking away from my house haha

I call him back and he acts all casual and friendly like nothing is wrong!!

I pull the package out of the letter box, and its clearly got "fragile - Glass - Do not bend" tape all around it, and I open it up and it is (or was) the replacement wing mirror glass for my old mans golf.

Had to get a bit arsey with him to admit what he had done, then after he admits it, he hands me 2 other parcels that he couldnt put through as he had blocled the postbox with the jiffy bag!

BAC!!!

Dont get me started on posties!!
Probably has third degree burns on his hands from standing around those burning barrels of back logged letters on the 'picket line' while he and two of his other mates moan about how much they hate working and why they should have unauthorised time off paid for. The other 600 people that work in the sorting office he and his other two mates work at are so upset that they have to do some work, that they cant stand on the picket line showing there anger and being united at forced labour and instead take the kids to Thorpe Park!!

can i join in??

i had been waiting for a parcel to arrive which was posted nearly 4 weeks ago i eventually decided to ring up the royal (pain in my arse) mail where they told me to try the callers/ collection office when i got there i found that they had my parcel there and that they just didnt bother to even attept to deliver it (confirmed by the man at the kiosk). he just said sorry and gave me the parcel!!

if i had left it 3 more days then it would have been returned to sender or if it didnt have a return address on it, it goes to belfast where it will be opened to check for details of return address and if theres none found it effectivly gets binned!!

rant over

i like my postie he is brill and a big mini fan, most of the time he calls back in his own time to deliver parcels for me, top bloke!!! royal mail on the other hand has 'lost' 3 parcels now in 7 weeks :(

Yes i moved to the darkside

I've had a few parcels disappear with no card through the door etc and miraculously re appaear at the collection office.

On the other hand, there is a rather tidy female postie who knows that the next best place to try is the garage if I don't answer the door.

But yes, royal mail & Parcel Farce = BAC

I had an interview letter sent to me on the 9th of sept and ive still not recieved it, i know it was sent as its where lisa works

I missed my interview!

My poastie's ace. He knew I was working on the car and waiting for bits, so when he saw a parcel for me he put it on a van so I got it early.

This is of course the exception to the norm.
