took 3 hours 40 to complete on a fairly quiet saturday.

Also had to book 1 hour OT

How do management think duty can be completed in 2 hours 40???? how do they get away with being so useless?

Perhaps he would like to change things for the better, not everyone gives up just because we don't like something. Thank god for the military, bin men and all those other people who do jobs most wont or can't do.

Really heavy today, I really can't understand where all this mail is coming from whenever they tell us that 'mails down' but it was a nice day and I cut off when I got to my time so no harm done (to me anyway :nervous ).

Far to hot again today for this job! Thought all the election material was done until I got in today and found more. Therfore completed the duty with 15mins OT booked and cut off the summer lapsing bit which began today.

Really heavy, probably did'nt help me throwing off all my D2D's but it was good to get most of them out of the way. Had a run in with a swarm of wasps or bees :nervous (did'nt hang around long enough to have a good look) I was back in the van like s**t off a shovel and its amazing how quick you can wind a window up when motivated :cool
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
