Not so much a quote but this guy who became an acting manager couldn't stop saying the word 'basically' in his WTL sessions. It got so bad we started a sweepstake as to how many times he would say it for each WTL. Bet he wondered why we were all listening so intently to what he said. He didn't last by the way. He is just a basic postie again.

Another one is......''well the other postie can deliver the round in time''...(the other postie being 20 years younger/fitter/and runs round like a lunatic to get back for his ot)..whick brings me to another point!
DO ROYAL MAIL recognise staff get older?
Do they expect a 60 year old postie to be as fast as a 18 year old on delivery?

me: I can't get round this walk is too heavy.

LIno: Of course you can the other bloke did it.

Me: Well he obviously runs round and comes in early, in fact I would like you to come round on delivery with me and perhaps show me how it can be achieved.

Lino: I am too busy to do that ;liar

We should be singing from the same hymn sheet on this one.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.
