Very light packet wise on my round. Quite a few had plenty, which was strange. Mild, dry day although it remained dull all day.

first day back from weeks holiday greated to 4 sacks of parcels surrounding my frame. made it really difficult to box letters in. i soon discover that we have 4 door to doors this week. nearly my whole frame is double slots so it like having 8 door to doors.

i then get one of the managers on my case conduct code joy. about putting mail thru the next door neghbours door. even thought it was the floater who did it. the dozy boot :crazy: came to her front door to tell me the mail was put thru the neighbours door on my day off and then phoned up and gave the wrong date that the mail was posted throught her door great

then my partner tell me we got are bags nicked for some bizarre reason. we are giving some shite backs where some retard has shorten the straps and tied a stupidly tight knot in it i try the bag on and its wrapped around my neck chocking me its thats tight. spend about 5 mins on every bag trying to get the knots out

then my partner tell me we have no van. we end up getting a shitty little peugeot van after the manager freaking out at us for about 30mins because he has forgot to get a van for us to use

so i get out on deliverly late due to all the crap then my pda goes full retard on me. it decided to constantly fire the infared beam for no aparant reason and thats all it will do take the battery out put in again still the same :dcfo

my partner decided not to mark down any of the parcels on one of the loop so i have to backtrack with parcels. so a excellent start to the christmas season i cant wait to find out what more fantastic days await me at work over the christmas period. but i do love parcels Honestly ;liar

a bit repetitive

Started: At normal time

Took Break: At normal time

Finished: At normal time

Hey ho, the only thing likely to change is where on the last one rather than when. :Very Happy
