Uh :whistle huh
Whether its the machines or humans that are the problem is irrelevant.
But you said-
THESE MACHINES DO NOT WORK. I REPEAT - THESE MACHINES DO NOT WORK
Then went on say about ground floor flats and 1s and ls and how the machine couldn't differentiate.

That doesn't say it's irrelevant, that's you saying it's a machine fault.

So, what's the latest from the canteen tech experts? Has the trial started again yet?
No the trial hasnt started again, but it seems the BS has... :shhhhh

So you hope your processing colleagues are soon to be made redundant, then?
There speaks the voice of unity and concern for colleague's jobs and welfare. Says it all, really. :cry

Well as you say, theyre not doing their job properly are they.

Better to have machines do everything then. Cant wait for the Postman robot...made in China of course.

Even better - the Robot manager...hang on! Theyre already in service by the looks of things!

This year I'll save those bits of coal for your processing colleagues, as they may need it. Clearly you're going to be no help to them... :whistle

Please, think of your family first and foremost.

Bored now. I think ill let Tman have the last word before this thread becomes a denizen of uninspiring wit for those with not a chip, but a potato on their shoulder.

How do you mean "before"?

You may care to look up the word "denizen" too, as it's made (even more of) a nonsense of your post... :wink:

In common parlance, a denizen is simply one who lives, stays or socializes in a particular place

Yes, that was my point, although I thought that was going to be your last word in this thread ;liar although I suppose now there'll be a mangled explanation of how this "thread can become one who lives, stays or socializes in a particular place of uninspiring wit"

No, on second thoughts, you win. Save your energies for the fight to come (assuming you will fight, that is..)

Having asked some questions regarding the POMC walk sequencing, it seems far from this being remotely true-
THESE MACHINES DO NOT WORK. I REPEAT - THESE MACHINES DO NOT WORK

or any sort of problem with "ground floor flats, first floor flats, or 1s and ls or all the rest of the ill-informed canteen gossip, the reality was that the first pass should have been done on lates, but lates couldn't fit it in due to a diversion from another office. This meant that all the passes needed to be done on nights, which due to insufficient machine capacity, wasn't possible before all the DO posties left in the morning.

Now, what was it you were saying about BS.......... :whistle

THESE MACHINES DO NOT WORK. I REPEAT - THESE MACHINES DO NOT WORK
