I only get ill when I'm off work.............maybe being off work is bad for my health............or maybe the naughty room is having a detrimental affect on my mental state :crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

Had an awful day today. Off work but with an awful chill after yesterday. Been sick and all-sorts. Am now 100% again. Very odd and very frustrating. Lucky it's Good Friday tomorrow - my intention is to have a good Friday after a sick Thursday. Will probably go to the gym, watch every televised game of football, have a rare drink prior to readying myself for work on Saturday. What a pile of crap that we always have to work Saturdays in-between bank holidays.

I won't be doing it again, that's for sure. I liked how some people were irate "and what time do you call this!! and stamps are going up!" while others a bit nicer "you're either late for today or early for tomorrow"

Though I had no choice the depot closes at 14:00, so took a bag back.

couldnt agree more as long as they box and bag it off and send it out then they can go home and sh#t all over the delivery staff :dcfo :ncfo :vcfo
