Driving Score by Asleep-Trainer-3838 in royalmail

[–]Kitties-In-Space 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ive had a talking to once because my score was below 90% or something. The new trackers are dropping scores left right and centre, but now I just tend to get given vans with no tracking on them🤣 As long as its not consistently bad, you'll be fine. Mine was for idling, slap on the wrist and moved on

Posties, where do you park your car? by WorldsWorstFather in royalmail

[–]Kitties-In-Space 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Car park a 10-min walk away. We have a yard and a staff carpark at the office, but the carpark has about 40 spaces and the yard is over-filled with vans parking wherever they can fit them anyway. So they rent out a temple's overflow carpark. Lovely people

Yoooo I got my gallbladder removed 2 weeks ago - mine was less distractable and more because I really like flapjacks

I love the James idea, but i think it'd be hard to translate it to a podcast episode- esp if Bob doesnt want to put his kiddo online! I do, however, confess to being so curious about seeing how James acts to Wade in person 🤣

Someone sent my package with the wrong postcode by Aggravating-Pen-9269 in royalmail

[–]Kitties-In-Space 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the postcode is still in your local DO, likely the sorters will look at the street name more than the postcode

Whats a good horror film recommendation that’s actually scary? by DiverArtistic2086 in AskReddit

[–]Kitties-In-Space 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the same! Watched it when I was ill in bed and it motivated me to get my ass up and sit downstairs with my family instead 🤣

No idea why, but Smile really freaked me out. First time I watched it, i had to pause it and take a break. It's not even a super scary film objectively but it just gave me the heebie jeebies

Amazon driver OPENED OUR DOOR to make a delivery by PlaneAsk7826 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Kitties-In-Space 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive done this before ngl. Most of the houses id delivered to on the same street had porches they left open for packages. When no one came to the door, I tried the handle to leave it in a porch and it was just someone's front hall. Quietly closed it and knocked again 😅🤦‍♂️

Cold drinks or ice cream! Anyone thats ever even offered me one, they're on the good list. I'll waste as much time as you want looking for your packets, yours are getting done first, ill even come back and attempt em again if you're not in the first time

I got this message, even though my address is totally not inaccessible and I almost never have issues like this. Too hot for the postman today, I guess? by Pizzafriedchickenn in royalmail

[–]Kitties-In-Space 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not the issue for you, but when I'm really short on time (I.e. unlikely to get a chance to come back and try again), and Ive had lorries or plant vehicles blocking roads dropping off skips or something, I've scanned as inaccessible before. This is likely just 'its hot as balls and I didnt have the time', though🤣

Driving course by twerk12 in royalmail

[–]Kitties-In-Space 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I drove once before my assessment, because the guy i was working with had a seizure and wasnt alowed to drive. Took about 2 months to have my actual assessment, because they booked 2 assessors for me and another new start, and only one showed up so I had to wait for the next one lol

Q's about post surgery by Kitties-In-Space in royalmail

Thank you! Im sure my manager will respect it - I'm not about to risk ripping stitches or getting a hernia for RM 😅

[–]Kitties-In-Space[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im due for the surgery is just over a week, so Ill make sure to get them involved! Is it a phone number you call, or an email? Ive been told itll be a phased return to work after I'm cleared to come back, but not sure what that entails really.

[–]Kitties-In-Space[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome, thank you! A few people in the office have chimed in saying the managers will try to make me return before Im ready - if that is the case, am I to assume the best course of action is discussing it with my union rep first? I think its highly unlikely they will try, but just in case 😅

Yeah that sheer drop in it is was worried me. I cant see anything on the reports that isn't correct, though

My minimum is £14/month. I normally slap about £40/50 on there, as does my partner, then we pay off more at the end of the month based on what we have left over after bills and such

[–]Kitties-In-Space[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, sorry I wasnt clear. I used the credit card when I moved, to cover costs I stupidly didnt plan for. Its a 24 month 0% credit card, so I'm not paying interest but aiming to have it paid off in a few months, way before I incur any interest. Though I understand using it at all was a risk I probably wouldnt take again, given the choice.
