The "How was your day" thread.

horrendous day.
shitloads of mail+poured down.
can't be any worse tomorrow surely?

[heapsy]

Got a phone call asking if I was interested in going in and doing parcels. I'm off next week so I went in from just after 12. Still plenty in there that needs clearing.

[krussel]

What a total CRAP day. Ive got 16 frigging perstops (trays) of mail sitting around my frame and i still went an hour over . I came home today and felt totally crap about the whole thing. Even after a bottle of wine i still feel crap about it.

Ours has gone AWOL aswell, last seen xmas eve. LM in charge has gone on a 'power' trip and is throwing his weight about(and theres a bloody lot of it!..lol)

It goes without saying that they've got a bit of weight to throw about

I just realised I quoted the wrong post of Krussels.......I must be tired

Our dom has taken some leave although it apears she did not tell anyone I think she's heard about the amount of mail still at the mail centre and bottled it.

Dont worry about it as i know how you feel, walking around in the pouring rain/ sleet does that

I am knacked and me bloody legs keep cramping since i had a bath, funeral tommorrow, what a poor state old Kruss is in

I am off to bed

Very light day out on delivery due to the fact we abandoned the IPS.
Finished an hour early.

It was my day off today.

A manager rang up this morning and left a message claiming that it wasn't my day off, as I believed. Apparently, he had told me on Tuesday that he'd changed it to Monday and that I'd get a day of annual leave back for it. I've got a very good memory and if he told me this, he must have whispered. It was not put down in writing and the rota quite clearly displays Friday as my day off - Friday is in fact the regular day off for the walk I am currently on.

Is there a case for B & H in this because I think it's a disgusting and deliberate attempt at FORCING me in on my day off. In fact, I would go so far as to call it another word altogether but I'll steer clear of that as this is a public forum, readable by all.

I think I'm on leave next week but the point was that he was trying to move this week's day off to Monday gone - the bank holiday - and have me work today instead. I would then claw the bank holiday back as an extra day of annual leave. However, he neglected to actually tell me this in anything else than a mumble, most certainly didn't put it down in writing, and the rota still very clearly displays Friday as my day off. Just to be clear I didn't go in today - it WAS, no matter what anybody says, my day off.

I'm just very interested to see what bollox comes my way when I get in tomorrow.

Interesting day...
Had an AOD...slipped,fell,twisted my already dodgy knee and took the tip of my left thumb off.
Patched myself up and carried on like an idiot,then my p&l partner drove down a hill in the bipper and just as he realised the kids had made the mother of all slides down the hill...he touched the brakes.
The bipper continued on it's own down the hill oblivious to anything we did until it hit the huge pile of ice/snow at the bottom...
Massive front plastic bumper damage and bits hanging off..but it looked mostly cosmetic...until halfway back to the D.O. the oil warning light came on and the engine started to sound like a tractor.
We nursed it back doing 20 on the dual carriageway...i think we may have killed it.
The moral of the story is...don't trust the airbags on a bipper.
You obviously need to hit a wall at 100mph before they will deploy.

Tomorrow is my day off...and next week i am on holiday.
I am as happy as a pig in s**t.

Quite possibly the busiest day I have had at royal mail, packets could handle but the mail volumes were an absolute joke didnt leave the office till 10.15. finally finished round 14.45 knackered, job really starting to piss me off.

[TrueBlueTerrier]

Fecking snowy - Left DO 10 minutes late and it had just started to snow - By the time I had finished to 2as 3 to 4 inches deep and the buses were starting to cancel routes.

Frosty the Postman has a very shiny nose.

Just got done in time. Heavy again. Still getting quite a bit of delayed xmas stuff coming through, and the packets don't seem to be dying down very much. Had a bit of sleet as we were going out which developed into a steady rain fall.
