Not an emotive topic.
But i was so pissed off today; when someone 'stole' my panniers ; yet again.
I'm sorry ; but how can these low lifes do this. w*****s ; the lot of them.
Rant over

My Stormproof with my ID badge in the pocket so the dirty thieving scumbag knew who it belonged to.
Pens...constantly.
Bands...don't get me started.

Re: Stealing stuff
Bands are taken all the time but I just get more for supply so no big deal and as for anything else, locked in my locker, taken home with me or locked in my van, I know some people will just 'borrow' items and fail to give them back.

Re: Stealing stuff
Because the people are selfish now, they don't see anything wrong with taking something that isin't theirs, just like they don't care what damage is caused by coming in early.......or using their own cars............or cutting corners etc.silly suffolk wrote:blokes used to leave their wage packets on their frames and knew no one would touch them. i saw this. would anyone dare do this now? people in general have changed im afraid.

Re: Stealing stuff
Lots of waterproofs go missing at my office. People leave them hanging on their frames incase they are needed. Its weird that the casuals that have only been to the office once or twice seem to have a full set of RM waterproofs 
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets
Illegitimi non carborundum

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.
