How to make the job easier

Post by Nobodyshero »

Havin read all about how difficult this job is got me thinking it really doesn't need to be, just follow a few simple rules and you'll be fine
1, Come in on your time, Just think a bit of a lie in
2, Do your job to the letter (No pun intended)
3, Take your full break
4, Work to your contracted time
5, Go home and relax tomorrow is another day
Feel free to add anything that you feel may help

it's like talking to a brick wall mate, people don't like the thought of finishing at 2:15 what they don't realise is they will be doing it every day in a few months time, they killed the job a long long time ago.

Walk into your office with a 12 bore over one shoulder, and a bag of cartridges over the other....then wait for your lineo to tell you have lapsing to do / keep you on IPS longer than usual / shift you to an unprepped delivery 3 hrs after you started prepping up another delivery :crazy: ( I'd recommend a pump action shotgun - cos if your lineo does have the balls to do it, he'll change his tune when you cycle the action, and make him think you're loaded :dance
I don't suppose your mouth bleeds every 28 days, does it?

Mail delivery; those that can, do, those that can't, MANAGE!

What ever you do dont mention stop using your cars ,as that will start an entirely different thread and then that ends up like running into a brick wall.

Crap ive just mentioned it

One guy at my office kills off all the crap like Saga mags etc. He reckons he's turned his once heavy walk into a light one by doing that. I wouldn't do that personally but I can see how it could make the job easier lol...

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

Yeh I know, crazy mofo....

I try and keep my nose clean at work these days, by that I mean make sure I'm not late, doing the job properly, completing all my D2D etc. I might hate my job but at the end of the day until something better comes along I need it and I'm not going to give the tossers any excuse to turf me out the door. Then I see fools like the one I mentioned doing some totally stupid things like that (some even brag about it :arrrghhh ) and if they lost their job over it they would be in all sorts of bother, I really can't understand why people will risk their jobs like that especially since RM would leap at the chance to get rid of people right now.
