FMD how did they manage that the dumb fucks

Nice one fella's all sorted! And.......   to Australia Post

I think the allowed thickness is 5mm (standard envelopes) before you risk getting them stuck in their machines - though I don't even think that guideline applies to anything but paper. Don't get me wrong, but with 10's of thousands of letters/parcels being posted each day I can't see how they can stop things like this from happening.

My ex used to work at the mail exchange and I remember her telling me never to even send paper clips or stapled mail as they had the potential to get jammed in the sorting machines. Once one letter gets jammed then a whole heap following it get jammmed in there and mangled as well.

I'm not sticking up for Aussie Post, just giving you a heads up based on an 'insiders' advice to me. If you need to send even small parts you're better off sending it as a parcel- just to be sure.

This brings back horrible memories of the first forum badges I sent out in envelopes, around 12 of the first 100 I sent out got ripped out of the envelopes.  Learned my lesson, I used padded tough bags for anything aside from paper.

I got back from U.S.A on the 24th Oct . Had my mail held while I was away . When I got home I had an email from Australia Post Cleveland ,the same mob handled Sonny D's, stating that my mail, All addressed to me and my family at the one address was sent by courier to the wrong address and was lost.WTF. and it cost me plenty.

If anyone has a geniune complaint they could always take it up with the PIO

www.pio.gov.au/

It wont help with incorrectly packaged items I presume, but if a courier is supposed to have lost your mail or whatever 'd be giving it a whirl.

Sort of, 8 episodes down, only a few remaining.

Not good news with the bike mate. Found where the oil is coming from?

Way to expose the secret code, Deadwood.

Aahh, my inadvertent use of the bold has brought me undone. Atleast the filth won't be able to pick it up!!

That was really bad luck. When I send out anything that is not a letter I scribble "DO NOT BEND" and "FRAGILE" on both sides in red texta. Seems to work.

 

 

 

 Wifey sold a gold ring with gem stones on ebay, sent registered/insured post, no problem there. Ring wasn't right size and was returned the same way, had to sign for it, the problem... Austpost gave the parcel pick up notice to someone else, different name different address, than allowed someone else, a different person again to sign for it. After 5 weeks of many (getting less friendly) phone calls, finally was given the name of the person who had it and told I had to go and see if I could get it, told them my laywers phone number, ¹/₂  hour later, lady turns up with ring.

For Fuck Sake... can't they read???
