Re: The "How was your day" thread.
Day off today. Am a bit bored because everyone else is at work. But I know Thursday is likely to be a terrible day, so I don't care much. Our postman still hasn't come, I suspect we'll have an over-timer turn up around 2pm/3pm. Although there have been a few times in the past when the postman simply hasn't come. Controlled carry-over, perhaps?

We've had it good here, no rain till 4pm and no rain in the morning for a long while. We're due a bad 'un.
In other news, postwoman turned up at about 2.20pm. I was mildly interested in a way I wouldn't have been before joining RM.

Re: The "How was your day" thread.
Finished my walk about 2-20pm (just managed to avoid an amazing flood with thunder,lightning - the works !) - bus back to office and then went out again and "did a row" for 1hr 15mins (it took me 1hr 23mins - not bad considering I didn't know the duty). Whilst finishing the actual "work" at a decent time, it's always the "getting back to the office" and "getting out again" that seems to gobble up the time, when you haven't got a car ... and then there's the "getting home" ...
Never mind - day off tomorrow - and I ain;t working it

"We're under model" - oh no we're not - stick your lapse elsewhere ...

Did a walk and a half in constant rain. Boots got soaked through after the first hour. The half a walk I did was unfamiliar to me and i didn't have a clue what I was doing really. Nice to be home in my comfy chair!

Rows of houses all bearing down on me........I can feel their blue hands touching me.......All these things in all positions.........All these things will one day take control..........

Re: The "How was your day" thread.
Took my sick note into work this morning just as the managers were leaving to do a walk..........4 of them on 1 walk!, even though there were loads uncovered. Glad to be out of there for a while to be honest.
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
Illegitimi non carborundum

The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

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.

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