The trouble is - those that are only too happy to grab that "carrot" are the ones that will squeal the loudest when it gets rammed up their arse.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

The Courier i find scandalous. A couple of posties in our office posed for those stupid smiling photos but said about how the job was tough these days etc. They wrote a made up quote from each of them saying how great things were. Wtf...

He was rushing round so he can finish early and get to his local golf course in time to see me crash my drive down the 1st fairway! Then we can relax and enjoy our hobby while you morons are walking the day away delivering letters and your customers complaining "your getting later".

Hang on. Most topics on here refer to and slag off fast posties. All i am doing is backing the posties that want to rush home and spend time with their families or hobbies. If your manager lets you finish early why not take advantage of it.

Coming in early, working for free? No it is not. I might start an hour early but i also finish an hour early. What is the harm in that? I do my job properly, my customers are happy they get their mail at a reasonable hour. Why is their such a big debate about it?
