New Sign

Post by Stormproof »

A new sign went up in our MC overnight, Photography Prohibited, no cameras, mobile phones etc. There are loads of them all over the building. Has anyone else noticed anything at their offices?
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

Our backlog is oversized packets and parcels that gone done by our 2 packet/parcel deliveries. These 2 duties were given normal letter delivery work to do instead so the packets and parcels are left sitting in the office untill tuesday :no no

This has been a rule of our mail centre since the place was built 10 years ago (i think we all signed the official secrets act anyway?) Our argument to keep our mobile phones on as and avaliable is because they have changed the sections/furniture around so many times in the past that if you were to phone for example the letters section, you would probably end up with the packets. So if your partner/family wanted to get hold of you in an emergency (no office staff avaliable evenings/nights and the shift manager doesnt know how to answer a phone!) it would be almost impossible. There-for, we keep our phones with us.
