Just speaking to our local postman who has been delivering our post for years. He was telling me as a permie with royal mail he is on a 2 month rolling contract!

Was it his idea or did the PO suggest it to him?Originally posted by Robbie View Post -
They have been doing that for years and years.
My friends used to do the job when they left school to get a few bob and they were always getting let go on the last day of the contract. One of them ended up with a PhD but the PO thought he was not of the right stuff for the place.Comment

Not surprised. It takes most PhD students 3 years to hand over one single chunky A4 envelope.Comment

The fact he had a PhD didn't matter, I doubt they decided he didn't belong on in the place purely because of his academic achievements.Originally posted by minestrone View PostThe cycle of life: born > learn > work > learn > dead.Comment

The bits about "when they left school" and "ended up with a PhD" suggests to me that they did not see a PhD on his CV when he worked there.Originally posted by chris79 View PostComment
