Unfortunately you 318 probably says ADSO somewhere on it ( as directed by supervising officer ) so we can't stop them doing this. BUT, if your normal duty takes the full contracted hours, as it will if you do the job properly by the 318, then you will simply not have time to do any other duties. With overtime ALWAYS being optional you can just go home at your official finish time.
Today was a quiet day but made sure finished at contracted time (he he). However, while going up one dodgy close someone shouted through window "Hey Wa**er. I never acknowledge them and i then heard them shout "F...ing Ignorant bas***d" - I don't think they understood the irony of what they said.
However, if they had said "Hey postie" or even "hey Pat" I would have answered.

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

First day back after 2 weeks holiday. Got a number of issues to sort with DOM, he's been playing one or two dirty tricks while I've been off. Day wasn't too bad though. ---------KWAK

It's a Bill Hicks quote talking about the stupidity of religion & Creationism ( the idea that everybody originates from Adam & Eve, etc ) - it was also the only thing I could find that was 100x100 pixels ( I have an avatar re-sizer, but it's set for 120x120 )
*In edit* PS, I tend to smoke JPS - izzat what you meant?

I don't believe in Creationism - but I do believe the Creationists look more like the missing link between apes and man than anyone has the right to.
Anyway, I found the full quote for you....
Bill Hicks, during his 'Revelations' live show said and thus on Wikiquote it was wrote:Fundamentalist Christianity. Fascinating. These people actually believe the world is 12 thousand years old. Swear to God! Based on what? I asked them. "Well, we looked at all the people in the Bible, and we added them up all the way back to Adam and Eve, their ages – 12 thousand years." Well, how f***ing scientific! Okay. I didn't know that you'd gone to so much trouble there. That's good.
You believe the world's 12 thousand years old? "That's right." Okay, I got one word to ask you. A one word question. Ready? "Uh-uh." Dinosaurs.
You know, the world's 12 thousand years old and dinosaurs existed, and they existed in that time … you'd think it would have been mentioned in the f***ing Bible at some point. "And lo, Jesus and the disciples walked to Nazareth. But the trail was blocked by a giant brontosaurus … with a splinter in his paw. And O, the disciples did run a-shrieking: 'What a big f***ing lizard, Lord!' But Jesus was unafraid, and he took the splinter from the brontosaurus's paw, and the big lizard became his friend. And Jesus sent him to Scotland where he lived in a loch for O, so many years, inviting thousands of American tourists to bring their fat f***ing families and their fat dollar bills. And O, Scotland did praise the Lord: 'Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord.'"

Very very quiet probably because DOM held our WTL which was about walk testing, new walks being added. Also about 20mins q&A about the offer and that everyting RM wants IS going to happen
