that was fun :Very Happy :Very Happy mail held over from sat which was held over from fri so all the managers that usually keep their heads down untill we leave the office on delivery where forced to come out of hiding and prep deliveries . no comment from the union as usual, :no no :no no ( i especially liked the one that took 45 mins to prep one rounds d2ds when they always say to me it should only take 20 mins),result out late so told to leave the mail again but still cut off with an hours worth to get back on time :crazy: :crazy:
it seems strange that with no real people off sick the place has ground to a halt but at least we are still doing the lapsing ,i am certain they have a plan :cuppa :cuppa

There is a person in an office somewhere who has clicked on the Lapsing Completed box on his spreadsheet for your office. He has gone home happy today.

best way to speed up them revising the revision is for everyone to refuse to extend, forces the managements hand into action.

If the reason for the failure is indoors and not outdoors, the planners won't be much use.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.
