Hello everyone, I'm a postman in Milton Keynes, joined the job last April and have been on 3 month contracts ever since. Previously a postie and PHG from 86 to 90 and pretty saddened at the way the job's been allowed to go to pot by a management team that'd have trouble running a bath let alone a business, to the picket lines!!

Welcome to RMC shedboy

Alot has changed since 1990 some good, some bad

but the current dispute is the big one in terms of how this industry goes

We must get a result which is good for customers and ourselves or it could be the end for this job.Enjoy,spread the word and man those picket lines.

Hi I have been reading the posts,

I have been on RM for 20yrs on various duties in this time but a walking hobbling postie,

I have seen RM distintegrate before my very eyes and my pension pot almost dissapear.
Now a single divorced parent and will be more then happy to support my collegues :cfo :
I just hope we can see this thru and not get stitched up like last time

Hello to everyone from the US. I am a letter carrier with 23+ years service. It's amazing to see that our own postal service is not the only one that seems to be going down the tubes. I wish you all good luck in your jobs and would be glad to answer any questions you might have about the way things are done (or not done) here in the States. Be safe, work smarter, not harder.

Welcome to RMC sonique291

I to have been a postie for over 23 years and despite all the grief we are getting at the moment i still enjoy the job

for how much longer is the big question.
I was in the United States on honeymoon in the summer,and just want to say i loved it

It looks like we are fighting for our futures on both sides of the pond

Good luck to you guys as well.

If i'd known you were getting married JP I would've been down to the church with the D2D confetti.

Thanks for the welcome, and hi to sonique across the pond, been to your country a few times Loved it
I loved the post about usuing D2D for confetti, but then who wants to be reminded of RM on your special day, mind you
when i got married to another postman many years agao our collegues made up a 318 log for our day lol ( I think that was the terminoligy for it ) long days gone past alas we have parted but we both still work on RM just

I have been across the board and read many posts, I have had mixed reaction on my delivery regarding strikes but it amazes me that the public still don't know the in and outs of why we are striking, I spend half my time explaining it to them

off for one of these now lOL
