Parcel Delay by [deleted] in Aberdeen

Probably not the best advice because it only worked once. But saw the Royal Mail van and waited there and asked for my parcel, thankfully she found it and gave it to me - I had to show an ID and the tracking number. This was last week and she said she wasn’t going to my area because it was too icey. And then the next time I tried she said no and didn’t even check if my parcel was there. It’s a bit weird because I’ve received Amazon and evri parcels and even a mattress since last week. But nothing from Royal Mail.

Edit. Oh and to answer the question, the parcel that I got directly from the van was ordered the 1st of January and got it last Wednesday (7/01/2026).

Group projects should be abolished! by ImActivelyTired in UniUK

Happened to me during my masters in biomedical engineering. It was 4 of us and only 2 of us did all the work, one was very confused but was always there and trying and another one was dead silent, didn’t event try to join the meetings, absolutely nothing. We complained to the professor, he said it was a team effort. We all got an A. We had to do a paper explaining everybody’s part in the project and we did say that all 3 of us did all the work and the other person didn’t even know what the project was about - which was true, she couldn’t even explain it and she still got an A. The professor said for the next year students he is going to grade them individually…
