My crystal ball predicts mental, positively luny scale, in a white straight jacket with my arms tied behind my back.

We must have had at least 3 yorks of IPS letters left untouched from yesterday that need to go through in theory, along with whatever has arrived since.

It's the opposite in our office, mail has been cleared every day but parcels have been rolled over for several days. It's my long weekend off and I spoke to the guy who did our walk yesterday, the 40-odd packets we left on Friday are nearly all still there.

The managers are having to justify every hour claimed in OT, there should have been people in today to clear up the packets but they just aren't allowed the hours to do it.

Worst Christmas ever as far as clearing the office goes.

Busy and dumb customers saying "I ordered something online on Saturday. Do you think it'll be here by Tuesday?"
