Had one customer come out with a letter I posted on the wrong street with the phrase 'can't you read' said in the most impolite manner ever, Frustrates me at times.
I don't suppose your mouth bleeds every 28 days, does it?

Tis annoying the way the customer thinks that they can talk to you like shite, i thought talking to us like shite was the manager job not theirs.

Reported TNT for Dangerous Driving
Oh what a friggin night on my way back from London tonight in my artic, there is a 50mph 1 lane section roadworks on the M/Way so stuck to the limit as camera's in situ. as i came out to the 2 lane bit the artic behind was a TNT one and as he over took did not obviously like doing 50. So he suddenly cut me up to avoid a blameworthy for an RTA and losing half the cab i swerved into the cones
(no damage luckily) but i thought sod this and rang the Police gave his reg number and direction of travel and reported him for dangerous driving. The officer on the other end at Thames Valley said "no problem sir i'll call his office straight away" Result i thought
Then 30mins later i get a call telling me they had spoken to his transport manager and a local officer was paying TNT in the morning. Bet he'll be popular with his boss.

I am not trying to rub this in on anyone who had a bad day but for once (probably first time this year) my duty went smoothly. Bags arrived at drops before I did, got rid of every packet registered and recorded. No missorts on run and none on walk. Bus arrived at stop as I finished so no waiting in the cold, and even got a cup of tea from a Docs I deliver to.
