Plenty of packets coming through now, and one or two xmas cards arriving early from overseas. Think some of the lads had it really bad today because of the congestion charge papers and the fact that there were loads throwing walks off. And we've got 9 out of about 90 gone sick.
I have just received our post at 1600 on a saturday where do i complain as i find it a damm disgrace that in this day and age we should have yesterday's post today and not near tomorow!. In eight hour's it is sunday are royalmail introduceing these by stealth. :cfo & :lfo By the way i finished on time rammed with packet's cold and tired and hungry but at least it was light when i finished.
My bus all completed today but will all be booking on Monday, no difference on Saturdays compared to the rest of the week now Had a york and half of parcels managed to get rid of a yorks worth after completing my walk.
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
Had my first Saturday off since June (fate of the spare i s'pose, but FIVE months?) but even then the LO's were after me to work it. Said i'd work my day off this week to help out (mug!) as we are short handed. One of the things that get on my t*ts is that when you cover a walk new to yourself, the amount of times you find that you share a bag box with someone who has already reserved every cubic inch of it, any other bag box on your walk is missing the key and no-one cares as the postie who's walk it is uses his car, so you get the pleasure of a long (invariably you're on the furthest walk from the office) journey to pouch off.
We got absoultely hammered today, I dropped the 1st postie off at 11.10. Altogether I had 15 timed bags and 15 drop bags, 46 parcels and my walk (75 drops) and the bulk. I got home at 5.30

Quiet today, at least on the letters side. Plenty of packets coming through. Cold, and very dangerous underfoot as we had sleet through the night and even more early this morning which made going slower than it should have been.
Had an easy day as it had snowed really heavy here and couldn`t get the van up the huge hill to the villages I deliver to,so only did one bag of mail.
I feel a sicky coming on for tomorrow!
Royal Mail managers.....about as popular as a t.urd in a swimming pool!
The DDA/Equality Act demands action,NOT words......adjustments NOT Occupational Health referrals.Case No:2505901/09
Royal Mail is an Equal Opportunities Employer..It discriminates against everybody.
very icy and played it careful both driving and walking. Office was cleared of all packets after a tough end to last week. Credit to the managers where its due and for those that put in the extra
