Ah yes B I notice you took that a little bit too literally. I was thinking more in terms of giving birth not creating it - it could be the naughty room for you :chuckle

Another thing,and it realy realy grates me and i have to hold myself when they give me a bit of 'not bills again postman' banter,this couple and their kids have moved into a brand new housing association house,she told me he can't work and he's on dissabilty as he can't go outdoors for long or something like that.

But he's on the drive every day playing around with his 2 year old people carrier and then him and her jump in it and go wherever they fecking go. :roll:

I think your job'll be safe 101, doesn't seem to matter what your contract is nowadays, the fact that you're here, now, counts.
Our Re-sign has taken no account of contract hours just start dates. Thank Christ they didn't try and work it out Pro-Rata :crazy: I expect they wanted to but the DIM wasn't up to it!

On a lighter point they may very well expect you to train up all these ex-civil servants who will be applying for jobs as Posties :Very Happy
