Royal Mail Wasters and an attempt at humour

At our local Royal Mail Delivery Office - where we have to go when the postman refuses to drop of parcels owing to his wearying mix of an angry demeanour and general workshy attitude - there is a home made sign up. It reads:
"Sarcasm is just another service we offer."
Presumably out back they have one of those signs saying "You don't have to be lazy crazy to work here, but it helps" and other jokes that would make David Brent proud.

Unfortunately, sarcasm seems to be the only service the Royal Mail now offers. The talk of service seems insane at a time when they cannot even offer the basic service of delivering the fucking mail. I can't say I'd ever be a particular fan of their ersatz, forced version of "humour", but it would taste a little less fucking bitter if they spent more time making sure the mail gets to where it should be going and less time on shitty signs.
