Re: Good Friday
I Started 97 in collections, don't think I worked it.
I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
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.

Never, in Scotland.
The following Saturday used to be one of the best days of the year because nothing came up from down South. Done for 10AM... excuse me, I have something in my eye.
