As terrible Royal Mail has gotten for customers, I feel AWFUL for the employees.
Im on a route in Peckham and stopped getting daily post delivery during the pandemic, it’s never come back. The collection depot is a short walk so I would just go there every day to collect it, now it’s only open 2 hours a day.
And my route? It’s not a dedicated route anymore. It gets handed to a lucky carrier when they finish their regular route.
I learned all this from the workers at the collection depot. I had considered writing a STRONGLY WORDED LETTER to our MP, but it feels like there’s not much to be done to reverse the decline at this point. Look at me. Beaten into apathy.
RIP Royal Mail (horse years-2023)
A growing stack of TV License warnings would make a poignant conceptual art piece.
