Flyers to sue the BBC?

Post by POSTMAN »

:funneh
People are always being told that lunch is under threat from workaholism, but would a compulsory long break actually mean we achieved more.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

It really does my head in to see posties at their frame with a Sandwich in one hand and
throwing letters off with the other I approached them about it and it's always excuses, excuses so I have give up now and just snub them.

We start early so we can have a longer break. :thumbup
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Take your meal relief! You are entitled to one and take it away from your place of work, ie your frame! Don't work and eat at the same time, if you have a restroom etc use that to have your meal relief in. Eating and working at the same time?! You are playing into their hands doing this.

In small offices like mine "away from your place of work" means outside, not practical in cold or wet weather, or across the yard in the 'outside toilet' :shock: so we do our best not to spill coffee on the letters :Very Happy and welcome any offers of breakfast when out on our rounds. :nana :nana
