My first week - druggies, dog poo, swearing

Post by gimba »

Well, has been my first week and quite enjoyable to be fair
Put with a coach first 3 days, finishing half 12, I've met druggies, slipt on dog sh!t, been shouted at because a guy fell of his bike, i was laughing with a customer at their door, and the fallen biker thought I was laughing at him, starting mouthing off, f this, f that, c'mon then I'll have ya bla bla bla

Plenty of flats where they discreetly open the door and you get huge woffs of weed

Today was the first day of my 6 week round
Very slow to start, kept the original waiting on his van for 20 mins

2nd bag I was back before him to which the route was apparent worst than the first, I didn't think so

I had to take one bag load back as time was up

I got to admit, i felt a bit stressed at being slow to begin with, but then thought hang on, i'm on a 6 month trial period, why would I be back same time as the original, to then proceed to not care that he had the hump
