Malicious Obedience


I mean this is kind of pointless - but I like the idea, because spite can be a very enjoyable act.

You know how you post a letter or small package - and it was all certified as correct when you posted it - weight, dimensions, volume and price...

And then 3 weeks later, at the receivers end, someone in Australia Post, has declared that you under paid the postage by 10c, and so they filled out a post card, sized card, sent it all the way, back through the network to your address.

And the message on the card says to spend 20 minutes of your own time and expense, taking yourself and this card, to the local post office, and pay the 10c shortfall in postage, with an additional $2.30 administrative fee.....

Now mindful of how many people have had thousands of dollars worth of their shit stolen by Australia Post, and enormous amounts of time and money spent picking up stuff that was supposed to have been delivered, and all the calls to Australia Post that have had you on hold for days and weeks- and the incredible losses they have caused you, your business and the losses in countless thousands of customers......

Well you can put all that spite to one side and use up those 25 cartons of 500 DL envelopes gathering dust, by posting lots of friendly fun filled letters to the people in Australia Post...

You can send them Rupert Murdoch's press clippings, magazine clippings and bags of lawn clippings.

Samples of beach sand, river sand, prize specimens from your dead blowfly collection on the window sill, bottle caps, ring pulls, favourite bits of driveway gravel - the list of enthralling conversation starters is endless.

Thrilling tales of woe in formula letters - is a challenge; because they wil take a month to say and do nothing....So you could send an individual complaint per week, every week  and if they get the department to respond, return that with a covering letter, back to the individual involved, with a covering letter, saying "Since I wrote to you personally, I expect a personal reply from you".

I am actually surprised that there are not enormous amounts of people with boxes or cartons of never to be used envelopes sitting around, that are not engaging in creative writing.....

So get your little laser printers out - re-enact the glory days of sending letters to your friends of the paper ultra-slow snail mail, and send a letter a week to everyone on the list 

And go churn out a few thousand reply paid envelopes....

Fuck the Australia Post National Crawl Center

Image
Awwww Australia Post.... Terrific.  People are so impressed with the service given by so many people in Australia Post.... The universal "Attempted Delivery" card being placed in the mail box, when the driver not only didn't bring the parcel, they never even came and knocked on the door.... Outrageous prices........ Parcels and letters going missing..... Registered mail never arriving, or getting signed for by the contractor and disappearing.... The tracking system that doesn't..... Mail taking 3 weeks to be sent from one suburb to the next......  What could be politely described as the "Go fuck yourself" policies and customer service when things are damaged or stolen.....  Packages "that could not be delivered", that end up in some Post Office,  far away, and the staff there,don't give a shit, can't find it and stuff goes missing and the customers get the run around etc... And REALLY BAD customer service..... The National Call Centre's...

Post Offices + PO Boxes = Pffft.

Image
https://www.facebook.com/australiapost/posts_to_page/ ‎ Deanne Hanchant ‎   to   Australia Post 15 hrs  ·  We have a Post Office box and most of our mail is addressed to it, however, there are some Government departments and overseas deliverers that will not mail to a PO Box and insist on a street address. We do not have a street delivery where we are. The local PO has told us that anything not addressed to our PO Box will no longer be put into our box but will be kept inside behind the counter as per Australia Post advice.  When I rang Australia Post to query this they said it is  NOT the case in an area where there is no street delivery (which is what we were told when we first got a PO Box) and it is the local PO who have made this decision, not Austpost. We took the PO Box in the first place so we could actually get our mail because we couldn't get to the shop when it was open! This new policy will affect a number of customers. Do we all just cancel our...

Australia Post gets a Snake Oil Salesman as it's new CEO.

Image
Vitamin company Blackmores chief executive Christine Holgate will be the new chief executive at Australia Post. First comments: Ms Holgate said she felt privileged to be appointed as CEO of such an iconic Australian corporation and, "one of the most resilient and successful postal businesses anywhere in the world". What she really means that she is either completely out of touch with reality or is a weasel wording corporate bullshit artist. What she said can be rephrased as "Australia Post is dying a lingering death and is an abject failure - that pretty much everyone in Australia it totally fed up with all their bullshit and is using other delivery services - if only to get away from the stolen parcels, late deliveries, being carded and bad service." Qualifies as being able to talk out her arse. [  ] Tick Previous Job. Snake Oil Salesman to the Profoundly Neurotic - "Ease your ailments with our potent magic pills". Sells mostly useless over priced shit of...
