As the postman crept silently to the front door, being careful not to make so much as a sound, he carefully slipped the 'we tried to delivery a parcel whilst you were out' note through the letterbox, cautiously manouvering it so its rattle wouldnt alert even the dog, then he crept back up the drive as silently as he came. WHAT A COMPLETE AND UTTER FUCKING BASTARD!! Now thanks to him I had a parcel waiting for me at the local sorting office. I'm not enteriely convinced he even had my parcel in his possession because it's raining and miserable outside so he clearly didn't want the hassle of ringing the doorbell and waiting whilst I signed for it. I've been in all morning so there's no way he tried to deliever anything. Oh the power they hold. Damn them all.
Turns out the package was a box of A4 envelopes. Thats right... envelopes. Hardly worth getting out bed for really, nevermind travelling all the way to the sorting office on foot in the rain!
Eek! Silly Royal Mail. I got something in the post today, and it came in a plastic bag apologising for damage that occured to it whilst it was in their care. I am holding the Queen personally responsible for this!
ReplyDeletelol @ holding the queen personally responsible. Yes! You should. She gets away with far too much. hahaha.
ReplyDeleteLeast they still delivered it though, most of 'em round here would have probably just binned it and denied all knowledge.
There was something on the radio about that a few weeks back. A lot of posties don't bother lugging the parcels with them and just put the card through the door in order to make the customer go and get it themselves.
ReplyDeleteThe service is just getting even worse. It wasn't that long ago we were getting two deliveries a day. Now we're lucky if we get our post before lunchtime.
They should just put cards through and say there's a parcel waiting for them, thats better than bare faced LIES about 'trying' to deliver something. If he really did try to deliver that parcel I'll eat my own pig!
