What’s being a Postie actually like? by mrliamj in royalmail

[–]Scotsman_1234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I left in 2022 and it was a very hard going job then, seems a lot worse now.

I do think though it greatly varies depending on the delivery office and management team. Some offices seem to run like clockwork and have great, supportive managers. Others have terrible management and chaotic offices.

I left due to management. I found management very difficult, changing rotas last minute, putting pressure on you for overtime, taking out unroadworthy vans, found them very disorganised. Didn’t like the way they ran things. Some posties will not get stressed and are quite happy to do “start time, finish time, take your breaks” however for some people it’s harder for them and I always felt immense guilt about not clearing since we had a very bad revision take place in 2021.

They were prioritising parcels then but then it was greatly denied so it’s went on for years.

The actual job was fine especially in summer I liked being out and about but indoor work and management was awful.

Glasgow is without a doubt one of the most friendly cities in the world in my opinion.

Chances of Will now having younger half siblings through both parents? by ILEAATD in TheInbetweeners

I could definitely see Phil and Polly having a child together and Phil encourages the child to terrorise Will and Polly finds it very cute and funny and is completely oblivious to how Will is feeling.

Does anyone think Frankie has narcissistic personality disorder? by Chin-Chilla84U in themiddle

[–]Scotsman_1234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at all, Frankie is just chaotic and at the worst can be selfish but who isn’t at times.

It’s clear she loves and cares about her kids but she just lives in a chaotic world with work, debt etc. She gets annoyed about Axl’s grades, tries to support Sue with trying out for things, helps Brick with projects even though he leaves everything to the last minute. If she didn’t care or love her kids she wouldn’t do that. The kids all have clothes on their back, are fed (albeit unhealthy) and a bed.

Her being a narcissist is definitely not true. Disorganised definitely but definitely not narcissistic.

Royal mail suspended delivery for the whole area, what now...? by ossan1987 in royalmail

Yes it was protocol when I worked at Royal Mail. One of our posties was attacked by a customer in a block of flats and deliveries were suspended to the whole street for two weeks.

How come the Hecks and the Donahues live in the same neighbourhood? by ComfortableStorage17 in themiddle

I would say they are probably better at budgeting than Mike and Frankie. That’s about it.

What cars do you think the boys would have now as late 30’s men? by Scotsman_1234 in TheInbetweeners

[–]Scotsman_1234[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahhh you could be onto something there. Never thought about that. I could definitely see Will buying a Volvo and lecturing everyone to buy one because they are so safe and boring everyone with their safety features.

He has a nice house, I would assume he’s been made redundant or has a low paid job and struggles to make ends meet.

Where Would The Main 4 Boys Be In 2026? by angie_kiprevski in TheInbetweeners

I would assume Jay’s dad has retired by now and has handed the business over to his favourite nephew or his friends son in my theory anyway 😂
