A full shift prepping or on the street (until our time?)

Anyone able to conjure up figures for the backlog? Almost a weeks mail piled up. I guess that's about half a billion letters or somfink? :cfo :lfo

If every fecking postman, did the job properly, it would take forever and a day too clear the back log!
Oh that's if there is a back log, cause according too our ADAM nearly all staff have gone back too work!
Which fecking planet is he on! like feck have all the staff gone back!
45% of mail has been delivered, balls, i have had no mail since last Thursday, and i don't expect too get any until Friday!
So you can lie and you can cheat ADAM, but we know who's telling the TRUTH, and its not you, you fecking idiot!

remember not to call it "work to rule" in front of a manager, thats an official strike action which we havent been balloted on. Its "doing your job properly".

I'm expecting a shed load of rubbish to be hurled my way to try and provoke some response from myself <but can't as I'm a rep so I need to keep my head screwed on and don't want to let anyone down> so I shall bite my lip and count to ten then get on with doing the job porperly and trying to make sure everyone else does too....No retreat no surrender.
