In the race to the bottom, Royal Mail have surpassed themselves. They've taken our bikes and have replaced them with a combination of trolleys and shared deliveries by van. I'm lucky enough to be blessed with a trolley. Had loads of people out on the streets tearing me a new one for pushing a pram
Used to finish before 12 most days. The new deliveries aren't any bigger, but we now finish nearer 2pm and the mail's going to get much heavier in the next few days up until xmas. We get to do a massive 11-13 miles of walking each day as well. Used to be around 5 or 6, plus about the same again in cycling. The difference in fatigue and soreness afterwards doesn't compare.
I honestly think there's a conspiracy in this. It's all bad with no advantages. I think we're going to be getting failed deliveries because it's such a slow way of delivering mail, plus all the injuries which are sure to follow. I honestly think someone or an organisation is trying to ruin the country. They're making every facet of this country worse, with the flimsiest of justification and this is the bit of it in 'my world'.
On a personal note, I've been coasting in this job for a very long time, after my college lecturer career didn't work out. It's been very good for a long time and now that it's awful, I need to sort my stuff out and do something better.
