Busy Friday and Saturday. Chilled out all day Sunday and caught up with all the programs I record through the week on account that I am too knackered to stay up and watch them. :neutral:

Finished just before my time today but only because i ran around like a loon and i took a bike AND a van, bit of a joke really.

Oh and i got a telling off for finishing early (30mins) on Sat as the lino said we lapsed a walk, i won't be coming in a bit earlier and killing myself again on a Sat then!

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

My third week on a 25hr contract. 8 hours delivering today. Had a run in with a fat woman in her PJs at 3:30pm asking incredulously "Is this the first post?" :roll:
