I owned and ran Lowfield RD Post Office in Shaw Heath Stockport for over 11 years. In the Post Office you have to not only know how the day to day running of a very busy office works, but you also have a private business to run as well. That included things like stock purchase and rotation, accounting skills for the wages and admin.

But your not just a boss and employee at the same time. You are a part of the local community and a vital part of every day life.
