I can't shake hands and wish someone a happy new year when quite frankly I hope they have the worst new year they have ever experienced

364 days of the year they say nothing to you and then want to wish you all the best ...get to f**k,I'd rather s**t in my hands and clap

Same with the people who feel the need to stop and try to engage in conversation with you whilst on your duty ...but you know full well that if you were in your civvies they'd look at you like you were s**t

I usually go missing.
Xmas eve at approximately 13.15. My DOM left the office to go home and didn't even speak to me. At the same time an acting lino, who was a postie in my office, offered out his hand and said merry xmas. I looked at him and said NO EFFING CHANCE. I was still sitting there writing out surcharge cards until 14.33, my finishing time. Every other person had been at home for at least an hour, some for 3. I could not complete my job, leaving about 70 surcharge items in a tray, the majority of them cards.
Shake their hands or do anything else remotely friendly ? NO EFFING CHANCE !!
