No I get my manager to order me a new pair every 2-3 months. Well, I get the manager who covers our managers day off to do it because our regular manager is a useless alcoholic.

By the way, noticing you've edited the post twice, how bad was the language the first time around :chuckle

You can order a pair of shoes and a pair of boots at the same time.

The uniform is supposed to last a given time.
If the uniform wears out before then you can order new uniform but it has to be authorised by a manager.
Put a request to your manager in writing.
State that your shoes are defective, that you will have to wear your own shoes and that you will not be responsible for any accident you may have on duty caused by not being issued the correct PPE.
If they don't order new trousers and you are left going out on delivery with your arse hanging out the hole where the pouch rubs, then threaten to go out on delivery in your pants and see if they order them then.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Phew ok :roll:

Yeah fair enough it can be annoying when ordering uniform and ive found it can be best to use the help of a Manager to phone the order through, seems to work quicker.

Pleas could you knock the SHOUTING and the swearing on the head as this is an open public forum and it does not help our image. :wink:
Rows of houses all bearing down on me........I can feel their blue hands touching me.......All these things in all positions.........All these things will one day take control..........

Only if you can't get uniform and are doing your delivery in your undies :cool
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

Well the Daily Mail see us as Knuckle Dragging Union Dinosaurs - but I don't think that is an image that RM want to promote - except when it suits.
