Re: The "How was your day" thread.
Crap! Moved to a duty from my normal float, as that duty holder was allowed to work his day off! How is this allowed when his round is covered by a floater (ME)? If he wants docket then why can't he come in and do a duty that is on o/t
. So there I am, shunted onto a duty i've never done (with no training, as usual). Had a word with the guvnor and he has promised it won't happen again
Rant over.
p.s. Lovely sunny day

Same as yesterday. Out later but managed to make up a bit of time. Major problem in the office was having to sort mail AND packets into the IPS frames after break time because they weren't done earlier.

SO many packets, so many people not in to receive them, have to leave packets in all the boxes and pick up points and retrace my steps after ive finished to pick them all up again. Lovely sunny day by the time i got going, nice views and reasonalbe walk, shame it's getting lapsed/absorbed soon.
