OK - I think I might have offensive_mango beat with this tale of unbelievable f*ckwittery by the Royal Mail.
BT have a load of new broadband stuff to deliver to me. They've been extremely punctilious about telling me - I've received two e-mails and a text message delivered to my answerphone, in the dulcet tones of Tom Baker no less, making it quite clear that the package would be delivered today, Friday, and would require my signature.
I decided to have an early night last night so I could be up and ready for this - and the gas board (who've just arrived as scheduled). Anyway, I'm up and showered by ten to ten. I've been constantly checking the hall to make sure nothing's come. At 10.20, the buzzer goes. It's the postman with a few bits, including a box for upstairs. I notice a card on the mat, and for a second assume he was about to leave it when I got there. But no. When I look at it, it shows clearly that someone has come at 10.10 and not left a special delivery for me - it has to be the BT stuff - because, and I quote, "which bell".
WHICH BELL. I live in a house comprised of three flats. Surely it is not beyond the wit of anyone to press all three? I'm sat in a room right next to the front door, and the idiot doesn't even think to knock or experimentally try ringing all three bells. Now I have to wait until Monday for the bloody thing, meaning I can't spend today setting it up, as planned.

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. My BFF Clash The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
Had a block of flats with 6 drops today,only had mail for 5 of 'em i accidentally rung the 6th one as well,when some bloke answered he asked if i had mail for him,when i started to explain what i did he slammed the intercom phone down,charming you wank biscuit.
So much for being neighbourly
