but it's being in a job that i am slowly starting to hate

i love the job i do, absolutly suits me perfectly, right down to the last lttle bit of stuff i need to do and what they expect me to do in return

but over the past few months it's been a case of me getting the flack from all sides, we need high level cleaning to clean the cobwebs in the unit, so i get a bollocking for not getting the cleaner to do it, even though we have a facilities guy who is supposed to arrange this sort of stuff

i mean, how petty is that? i was told to get it sorted, i told him, he didn't do anything about it, then gave me a bollocking

and don't get me started on the woman who calls up 3 hours after you've told her that something missing and says "can you go back to look for it, the computer says it's there so it must be"

or the trunk driver who won't pick up anything if it's not in the correct area's. even though the correct area is sometimes not big enough to put all the stuff we need to send back in, so he leaves it behind

but the main problem is that everyone is out to point the finger of blame at soemone else, rather than think "hang on, let me figure out why this is happening so that it doens't happen in the future" the perfect example being deliveries that go to the royal mail sorting office rather than the address of the company, simply because the postcode puts it there

so, rather than check that the postcode is correct on the map, as in you google the postcode to see where it takes you, they just punch it in and then the driver has to spend an hour trying to get through to find out what the right address is, before being told "we don't have a contact number for them so you'll just have to go and find it yourself"

90 minutes yesterday to do 2 miles and where was the delivery? at the same place as one of the other guys who was in the area as well

i've been ehre 9 years and in the last 6 months it's got noticably worse

i could fill pages and pages and pages of stuff that's wrong, todays major fuck for my route was not the going around the houses from feltham to hampton to richmond to acton to w1 to ec2 to e1 to n13 to en4 to wg6 to w10 to ub6 and all sorts of other places along the way, it was tha tone of my later drops wanted it before 12, was promised it before 12, then i get a phone call to ask why i was running 2 hours late and if it would help if they cancelled the 2 drops AFTER the one i was going to get to at 2pm

i was speachless at this stupidity
