The troublemakers type
The two-faced behind your back never to your face type.
The "why doesn't he talk to me" weird type - who then moans behind your back that you never talk type.
The shifty one who tells you your working too hard or too slow type.

Worked on a duty with colleague who is a fat lazy git.
His loops are ridiculous small compared to his partners
It's pretty obvious he doesn't put any graft in as surely he would be a slim bloke, seems like rm is all he's ever known, he's gone through more partners than anyone in the office who all complain about his lazy ways, i luckily only had one day with him, feel sorry for the guy who works with him currently as he's such a nice lad

The round i am on now was disgusting. The normal duty holder is on long term sick (at least 6 months). I went to the manger complaining about the van. Just like magic the next day it was clean :nana

Those selfish few that just think of themselves and the shareholders and don't give a thought towards us all working together towards improving our working life and repelling the draconian proposals from Moya's team. :cuppa

Because "job and finish" is unofficially alive and well in most depots, so many OPGs simply want to get done and return to more pleasurable things outside of working at RM, not exclusively but especially on Saturdays.

Who in their right mind doesn't want to "get done and return to more pleasurable things outside of working at RM on Saturdays.
