Needing to finish on time

Currently being ferried around by manager to do different loops of those that are off work sick.
Explained needed to finish on time, still given 2 bags with 7 big bundles, multiple parcels, no PDA, in the rain and with plantar in one foot, on loops I've never done before.
Ring him half an hour before and tel him I won't be finished. He goes on about how it needs to be done asking multiple times why can't I do it and someone else could do it in the time I've taken.
He then states that because he's got thing to do he can't pick me up until my finish time or 10 mins later so now who knows if I can get to my child on time for them finishing school

You are well within your rights to finish at your time. These kind of stories wind me right up. Were you far from the office? You should be back at the office FOR your finishing time, not at. Get a grievance in.

Was a long way from the office, tbh anywhere we go is quite a bit from the office, if he didn't arrive by half an hour I was ordering a taxi, getting back, dumping everything and leaving. I had to get someone to pick my child up.

Yesterday, I did overtime until about 5pm. I waited 40 mins for him to pick me up, wasn't fussed, didn't have plans, went to subway and sat and had a sandwich whilst waiting and got paid for 40 mins of doing nothing. But still a bit s**t, I just wanted to go home lol
