The job is f***ing shite mate
If that’s your experience, why not go and find something more interesting to do instead? Why remain in a job you despise?

It's 99% of delivery posties experience in this job now. If it wasn't for people like me RM would be finished within the week silly. :roll:
Is that the result of a YouGov poll you are quoting, or just the result of you speaking to your fellow moan for England mates?

And again, if you despise the job so very much, why remain?

If the OP can walk 10K without issues &/or run a 5K Park Run they should have no issues, just expect parts of your body to ache which have never ached in the past.

Also get a decent pair of trainers and then the official RM trainers as soon as you can along with a few decent pairs of socks.

Also don't forget your sun tan location and a decent drinks bottle.
