He should have done his bicycle checks and that front tyre does look a bit flat if his nose hit the rim it is his own fault!.

We don't know if his bike was overloaded :hmmmm or he just had a crap bike but he should have been wearing his helmet (I'm not too sure how it would've helped but you know rules are rules :wink: ).

Just when I thought things could not get worse was threatned with conduct coding this morning for refusing a reasonable request. The request was to do the summer lapsing without complaining even if it took me into OT. So been stressed all day and will probally have round two tomorrow. Despite being told there was less mail today than yesterday I swear my frame was fuller had more recordeds and packets. maybe its just me better go to the Opticians to get my eyes checked.

Just do what I did, accept the fact that you're going to get sacked for something and relax about all the crap they throw at you. Afterall, what's the worst thing that they can do to you :hmmmm

Summer lapsing is working fine in my office, at least I think it's working fine because I have'nt done it :chuckle I always tell them that I'll do the lapsing if I have the time whenever I get back but for some reason I seem to arrive back exactly on time :angel

Better day to day but only cos I kept my head down, and did what i was told, (Could not be bothered with arguments and more threats of conducting). Luckily post was not two bad but sack loads of packets instead.

Everything seemed ok to start with, half a dozen mech bundles and not too many flats, then loads more turned up, overflowing packet bag, 17 rec/specials items :arrrghhh just managed to complete on time. Hope tomorrow is better.

My friday went really well :Very Happy . With just 3 1/2 mech trays and a mangeable amount of flats but the best bit was only half a packet bag and one , yes one :shock: parcel. result!!!. This time last week i was bombed out with packets, parcels and having to cope with 15+ signed for items (reg/rec). So not bad really and i missed the rain. :Very Happy
