    Customer advisor at the Post Office, February 2021

  • Best thing

    It's easy, you just have to wake up early and collect the papers for your designated round then work for roughly an hour a day and the rounds are usually fit to where you live

    Worst thing

    When the papers do not come and you have to wait for them but that is not your fault or the post offices fault it is the newspaper company's fault.
