Our DOM told us he was fed up hearing us moaning about having wet feet when we return to office,and we should be wearing suitable footwear. He then said we were all dishonest as some shovels had gone missing out of vans. Someone jokingly asked if he was buying the bacon rolls and he said he would consider it when we all start sharing our tips with him!!! Prise plonker!! :shock:

Maybe so but correct me if I'm wrong health and safety is paramount accordingly to Royal Mail.
