RMCtv : It wouldn't be Christmas without a Royal Mail Christmas cringe fest.

Post by POSTMAN »

What we do at this time of year is about more than delivering letters and parcels. From connecting faraway friends with Christmas cards, to making sure those all-important presents arrive on time for the big day.

This is the time of year when our customers rely on us most – after all it wouldn’t be Christmas without Royal Mail.

It’s our snow-covered postboxes that are sparkling from mantlepieces on the front of greetings cards. It’s our red vans on every street in the UK and our posties delivering Christmas in all shapes and sizes with every step - from John O’Groats to Land’s End.

So after the best Peak in four years last year, we’re asking you to join us and confirm to the nation that once again, we are their preferred choice this Christmas. Let’s make this the best one yet!

To get you into the festive spirit...

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Brilliant ad. After watching that I'm raring to go, ready for the joy that my work gives me over Christmas.

Bravo Royal Mail.

I challenge anyone to find a card depicting Royal Mail/PO/GPO staff delivering amidst a snowy scene that would be dated to any time within the last half century. I just don't think there's a card out there portraying a shorts-wearing highly-visible individual getting out of a crapped out 11 plate Combo to doorstep some Tracked. What's so unromantic about that?

I'm sick of the way these assholes keep trading on the ''We've been delivering the mail for 500 years'' angle.

We've only been Delivering a Second Class Service for 9 years ,ever since Vince Cable sold us cheap to his buddies in the City! :thumbdown

We're now a Privately owned Company, Run by Greedy Bastards that only care about making money and certainly don't care about anything that's gone before. I'm surprised that we're still allowed to be called ''Royal'' Mail. :cuppa

They must have put something in their tea and coffee, as they've gone while hyperactive while the camera is rolling :crazy: :chuckle

Security of vehicle: The van window has been left fully open. Or maybe it’s broken and the manager has said ‘take it out, just try not to be away from the van for too long.’
The day is gonna come when we’re all gonna have to testify.

Lest we forget, these are the same people who didn`t care that kids didn`t get their Christmas presents in time during The Strike. :evil/mad
