but I have not instructed for a while and am out of staff. I am an instructor as well and do a little Q ride stuff so I have young kids coming through that like to do it. And most times I can get someone to work. I am regional and this is the way it works.įor most part I love it. It might be different in the big smoke for posties. Same thing day in day out every bloody day haha. Then she can decide if she likes it or not. If she can get it through them first then all good as she will get the training required. So for your girlfriend I would get her to ring Aus post 131318 and ask about employment. Both us contractors and posties work out of the same depots. There are Aus post depots all over the place. But most of them are so sick of Aus post by the time they leave they wont have a thing to do with it and we cant get anyone to help out. And if we are sick or need a holiday we have to find someone who can do it for us. Because the runs are not profitable enough for Aus Post. Any run beside usually the CBD of a town or city is done by a contractor. And they can charge me what ever they like for someone to do my run in that time. And then have to pay them for someone else to do my job for three months or untill the contract is taken on by someone else. I could not get anyone to work for me so bad luck basically. I had to go out yesterday in extreme weather conditions with a huge gash in my calf muscle. They are contracting out most runs these day. It is just ridiculous and no other company could get away with it. Most posties have to explain why they are late. Most contractors do an hour a day for nothing. estimated time outs (out of depot) and estimated time of return. This comes back to it being all timed and that is all you are paid for. You are not meant to go oever 10k an hour but you are timed at 10k an hour. A frame that wraps around you so when you are out delivering you just grab the next letter for the next box. You get all your mail for your run and then you have to sequence it. In the right spot at the right time to even stay on as a casual. They promise full time but you have to be extremely good or lucky. Uses them for their three month pobation and then gives them the flick. We are not meant to talk about our work or dislikes of it.Īus post hires heaps of people. We have a whistleblower clause in our contracts.

The Postie Bike Challenge donate to charities and community groups, they provide the bikes and all support for riders.

It’s not just Aussies taking to the road on these mean machines, read about the travels of the ex-British Bobbies, Gordan, and Belle Sinclair. Some are ‘fortunate enough’ to head off on great adventures… They then become faithful companions to regular Aussies being seen around town, often attached to the back end of many a motorhome or with a surfboard fixed to the side and heading to the waves. Most of the Postie bikes hit the auctions at about 4 years of age. Raising money for charities or just for fun… what a way to see the land down under! The darling of the postal delivery service in suburban Australia, these little motorbikes have been seen on some tough tracks around the country. 110cc of awesomeness…taking on the vast outback of Australia and going where no postie bike was ever intended to go.
