if you hate royal mail sooo much why do you simply NOT order with them.
just give the company a ring and get them to send it via city-link or whatever.
its not hard you know. You all seem so quick to judge, but as rc_mad has said.
lets have a think here:
how long would it take to reform the postal service eh? a matter of months, and longer to get everything working right. More than 6 days im sure
how much would it cost for YOU? well, think how much it would cost to re-form it, increasing pay, and taX, cost of letters and services to make it a BETTER service.
do you, or do you not get all your bills? all your invites? do thousands round the country not get these. Royal mail are the only besides couriers, service in the UK who do all this, and they do a massively good job considering. How many letters do you get a day? 5 to 8 i bet. The postman has to carry about that many letters to everyone on his rounds, so dont take it out on him
considering what low amounts they get payed its tough delivering letters, important bills and business letters on time. Someone has to do it,
to end it: DO YOU REALLY THINK THE WHOLE POSTAL SERVICE WOULD STRIKE FOR NO REASON????!!!!
anyway, naiveity over on everyones part
