Some on my duty are getting upset with Virgin especially after last week
1. All week a D2D.
2. Monday to Wednesday- A4 size letters
3. Tuesday and Thursday - small postcard size advert
4. Wednesday - Saturday standard C5 letters
Some poor buggers got something from them every day
Why do they also send stuff to addresses that no longer exist, and have not for a decade in one case

.On a serious note, it was okay today. More mail than a usual Monday but the now expected scarcity of packets. We tend to get battered on packets on Tuesday as a result, but the mail is usually uber-light which makes it manageable. After a week of complaining about my walk not being thrown out, I had a week last week of bliss, but today it was back to normal with two mech bundles not thrown out - there couldn't have been more than six overall (which would take me half an hour to throw out). Oh well, I'm cutting off if it happens on a heavier day. I finished exactly on time today (as I always do), but that was only through luck (at having one packet per bag and very few recordeds). I dare say if it isn't thrown out tomorrow . . .

Vermin, headed by Richard Branston, has fallen hook, line, and sinker, for all that guff about the power of advertising.TrueBlueTerrier wrote:NEmallard wrote:Busy day for monday. loads of National holidays magazines and yet more virgin media stuff. every week delivering something different from them

With all the shyte I've had from Vermin down the years, I could have papered the whole of my house at least three times over, and not once, not one single, solitary time, have I ever considered Vermin Broadband, Vermin TV, Vermin Media, or Vermin whatever, not once.
Powerful stuff, advertising.

What makes me laff is TalkTalk - still banging out the D2Ds and DSAs ... yet shedding nearly 600 jobs ...
... and to think that Virgin began as a tiny record shop in Notting Hill Gate ... it's all Mike Oldfield's fault

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

Re: The "How was your day" thread.
I had about 13 bundles. A fair few packets. Finished exactly on time, as usual. If tomorrow proves to be a bugger . . . good. I'll still be finishing exactly on time.
