I can see a failure in your future but don't worry, it will be the cheapest Christmas ever so big bonuses all round (managers only).

Saturday, hammered. Today, a lot worse. Manager was relieved to hear me say I was taking everything. Plenty seem to me leaving stuff to make life easier.

Not outrageously heavy today, did a good job prepping a walk only to go back to mine to find it half finished. Did a stirling job completing the prep on mine only to spend the next 20 minutes wandering around various colleagues asking for keys. Complete balls up, went over.

Out at 11.30 am back at 4.00 pm , claiming 2hours ot. Actually not as bad as I thought it would be, probably the lightest day I have had for a week. Though the high call rate, meant it took ages to finish.

Worst day ever.

I didn't get my 1st letter in till gone 10am had to cut off - to complete my walk in time i have to get the 1st one in by 9am really and then proceed to pelt it round - knock on's have to be limited too.

Not good.

Today was lighter. It wasn't easier as everyone was so shattered from the day before.

I don't why everyone is so tired, I've been having the best Christmas ever, 1 hour plus of cut offs everyday and I arrive back to the office everyday on time.

Is that an original composition or is it a cover version?
What type of bird was it anyway?
