So do I... I'd get my job done a lot quicker if I didn't keep stopping to stroke every cat/dog I see.

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.

I don't talk to cats, but I do listen to them. I've also been shopping for old people, but they don't sell them down here. Must be a London thing.

Oh, how much do I love this job?
Well I like it less than I did yesterday, but more than I will tomorrow.

Don't care about it one jot. Had some time off this week, realised that I wouldn't care if I was sacked (though I'd obv. prefer not to be). Got enough money saved up not to bother. Have just taken up climbing/mountaineering so would love to go out, do some travelling, spend a year out of work. That's pretty much what I intend to do at some point in the next year, so I'm not too bothered about this job at all.

And some of the knobends I work with.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

I love this job, I get up 4 hours before I go to bed, then I'm force fed COLD poison by management, then I'm made to do a 29 hour duty and after that I'm beaten to death by my DOM and then given a stage for being dead..................all this and I still look forward to the next dy at work :crazy: :nervous
