Back Again (Briefly).

Just a quick note to report yet another piece of Post Office Ltd utter fuckwittedness.

Now, as you may be aware it's coming up to Christmas. Traditionally a time when people send a lot of cards to each other. Most people tend to use second class post as they usually are sending out quite a few cards and they're looking to save a bit of money. Selfish bastards, they should send everything first class or ideally special delivery in order to make me a few quid.

Anyway, our stocks of Christmas second class stamps were looking a bit depleted so we put in an order for some normal second class stamps, some books of second class stamps and some books of 100 second class stamps.

Then we waited the whole week that Post Office Ltd seems to think is an appropriate time to deliver an order. Bear in mind that the order is placed on our computers so they should have it as soon as we've finished placing the order. Also, the stock comes with out weekly cash delivery so it's not like it needs to take two or three days in the post either.

Oh dear. Something seemed to be missing when the order arrived. Can you guess what it is?

Yup, not a single second class stamp. No normal ones or even any books.

As I write this, we're now pretty much sold out of all of our second class stamps. It's not as if we've fucked up. We placed the order in good time and it wasn't even for an excessive amount. Post Office ltd have once again demonstrated that they really can't be trusted to run this business anywhere except into the ground.

And just a quick update about the last posting date leaflets. They arrived on the 3rd November. After all of the useful surface mail dates had passed by a country mile.

In case I don't do any more posts in the next few weeks, Have a shitty Christmas. I will.
