Post by kirstyx »

got back to the office after delivery to be called over to my frame and told that i would be spoken to tomorrow because i had left my fleece draped over the stool and tucked under my frame. cant believe how petty this is, if it was in the way or left on display i could understand but just seems so stupid to make such an issue about it

where does your manager put his jacket or coat?.
or just tell him you was keeping your seat warm and put in a compliant that your manager is
mentally unstable.

Would love to help but as this is so unreasonable I find myself unable to do so.

Seriously..
Run, rabbit run. Dig that hole, forget the sun.
And when at last the work is done. Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one

This is the future of WCM in deliveries.
Like nursery school without the milk and group nap time.
good times, bad times you know I've had my share

wish i had made it up. its a new manager we've had for a couple of months throwing his weight around the whole office hates him its always little things he picks on but when he wants you to do overtime he acts like your best friend. i did tell him the fleece was only there because it got wet when i walked to work in the rain but got told that no personal effects are allowed to be left on the frame at all. im kinda looking forward to tomorrow to see what hes going to say

If you have a drying machine tell him it was full and you had no intention of going out in wet clothes but because you are a conscientious postman you decided to take a risk on catching pneumonia and take the delivery anyway. :cuppa
