Today was more like a Tuesday than yesterday was, probably because of the holiday. Very warm here in Manchester. Everyone delayed leaving the office due to different arrival times for the missort run, so most were hanging around a bit.

Heaviest day since they put me out on my own but for the first time I wasn't rushing around or panicking, so I just did everything at my own pace and was pretty much finished in the same amount of time. Plus only one mis-prep! (errr.. that I know about) A new record low for me! :nana :chuckle

Busy day today, loads of magazines and a good number of annual statements from Standard Life. Got out later than I would have liked and it was a scorcher. :Sick

Had a busy afternoon/evening, lots of customers coming in for there packets early as the town is going to be gridlocked because Madge is visiting, glad I'm not working tomorrow :nana :nana
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

Changed duty from one i was down for, no probs as it was an easier one.

In the back ground changes are afoot. Meetings have been held. No part time employee has been made aware of anything that is going on.
