The way that they count fails, means that an office has to be an absolute bonfire of bonfires.
If I may mount a backhanded defence for management, we're no bonfire. The situation is as bad as all the times we haven't been listed, but the callrate shot up for Mothers' Day. That's why we're on the list. A rising tide sinks the unit, if you will.
Any Questions?
Yeah, how do I get out of this chickenshit outfit?

As a consequence of the mathematical coincidence that 10 6' − 2 = 999,998 = 62 × 127 2', the decimal representation of the square root of 62 has a curiosity in its digits.

We have had days probably up
To a week of 100% of deliveries not going out except for the the first class and tracked 24. I asked how come we have never been put on this list and the manager said because it was a “planned failure” or something like that. We had one person covering 2 duties each day for nearly of all the rounds. So if it’s known each day the rounds will be failing do they not count?

That manager is a corrupt moron. Corrupt for not recording fails and a moron for saying his confession out loud.
