Logistics Training Council are complete self serving wankers.


But their numbers on Australia Posts diminishing market share appear to be accurate.

And really? You need a fucking bullshit TAFE qualification to deliver letters?

Where does being able to read, write, read maps and remember routes or being fucking literate and having a brain come into it?

I mean I was doing paper rounds, at 5am, in the dark...

Use the street directory, figure out the best route, and go do it.

That it why I have basically no respect for registered training organisations, their largely idiot staff and their bullshit money grubbing certificates..

"Assistant pencil sharpener, Certificate 1, 2, 3, - followed up with a diploma in pencil sharpening, and then an advanced diploma in pencil sharpening... Then you can go to university, and get a PHD in pencil sharpening..."

Yahhh fuck - as if.

Careers in Postal

Australia Post has a 40% market share of the postal sector. This is by far the largest percentage share with the closest rival, TNT at 6.7%. A collective of smaller providers have overall market dominance accounting for 46% of the market.  This tends to show the large number of independent operators and subcontractors that operate within this space. They service small to medium scale businesses and operate mainly in metropolitan areas of major cities.

Fuck the Australia Post National Crawl Center

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...
