Well i'm at work today but I have yet to see if working is on the agenda. I must say it was great coming into the city today, practically no one on the train and not many around in the city in general.

I'm starting work @ 3:30pm doing the red vans for AusPost.

Got to pick up a bunch of Post Offices (Banyo, Nundah, Hendra, Clayfield, Toombul, Northgate).

Then I come over to Redcliffe after 6pm and do a final clear with the electronic key on 37 of the red boxes.

That's my shift, I drive like a crazy f***er and do all kinds of illegal s*** so I get back 45 - 50minutes early and get sent home (while still getting full pay).

So don't post any mail today c***s... especially stuff with "fragile" on it because I usually drop kick them into the van.

Just for you Chub


I remember doing the Post run around Christmas. FKN Christmas cards, tons of them. 'This parcel is Fragile, don't drop it'. AHAHA sucks to be you, no fragile service in the post.
Emptying the vans is fun with heaps of people back at the depo. So many parcels getting thrown around....

yeh 80k in two years isn't monumental but it's definitely more than average ;)
I blame the size of aussie and the temptation of driving to it's yummy bits

I don't think so because I'm not getting any presents. So I did the only thing I could and went out and bought some for myself. I'll post them in the "what did you get for xmas" thread tomorrow.

Yeah f***ing Xmas cards, doing pillar runs blows, stupid noobs putting in bundles of 100 cards.

All you need is ONE c*** to ruin your day, the other day at Banyo some f***ing slut posted 380, f***ing THREE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY of those red postal tubes... way to make my job hard.

Then some fat c*** Nundah posted 7 f***ing TRAMPOLINES! It's like, f*** off you knob, don't make me carry your trampolines, I'm a mailman.

Favourite thing this year was when some wanker in a BMW / Euro plate parked in the mailzone at Toombul shops (big red P and huge letters "Aus Post mail vans only". So when he came back I parked him in, locked up my van and went to lunch for 45 minutes.

Bah, hope I never do... will probably die before then, sounds like a good plan to me.

Sucks to work today though, the bonus is that every single mailzone for the next 5 hours will be full of c***s on holidays so I can double park and block up entire lanes of traffic for my whole shift.

I get a weird satisfaction from that :)

I dunno, I honestly get a kick out of it :)

I especially love when someones parks in the mail zone (95% of the time they're next to red/express boxes) and then they run over to hand you a parcel when you pull up... I'm definetely not gentle with that one :D

Its a specialty of the Post. Really, it sucks when you are going in to pick up a buttload of mail and someone has parked in the pickup zone and there is traffic everywhere.

I was 'at work' but I wasn't working.
They just need people to 'Keep up customer support'

So We all forwarded our phones to the phone near the table and spent the day playing Cards/ping-pong.

If I was allowed to do anything with the computers (I.e. install stuff) I would of hooked up a network game.

so basically you vandalise other people's property? You should be proud, that is right up there with keying cars and stealing from friends.

lol, take a joke :)

That being said, anythng with "fragile" or "do not bend" on it gets treated the same as everything else, we don't try to break it on purpose, but they still get tossed around and crammed into bags.

w00t, at home and drinking 10 minutes before my shift ends, no mail tonight :D

No, because then I would be at risk of being shot, since he keeps a berrata near his bed.

I merely remember what he's written in various threads over the years. It's a useful skill reso, remembering things, you ought to try it sometime :)
