What's happening?

Takes longer for me to answer the door than it would for the lazy twat to walk 3 paces and drop it in a wheelie bin to keep it dry

Sounds like me … :rofl:

What about effort given?
Really if you don’t align pay with effort given then I don’t think your in a position to comment!

What about those with a shit attitude in life?

They usually end up in politics.

Are you getting to answer the door though?

Yes, this is the likely issue with contract delivery people. They can earn pretty decent money, but the margins for their performance are really slim, and the only thing they are measured on is the number of drop offs they can make.

Would she resign if there was a petition of 1500 or so voters in her riding? That is about the same percentage.

More of the same buffoonery the Conservatives have been producing, like voting against the Ukraine deal because it ‘would impose a carbon tax on Ukraine’. Makes me absolutely dread the next election, I don’t think I can recall a worse slate of choices. Even the Bloc leader is a twit.

Thanks for the answer.

More likely the have too tight a time per parcel ro stop and read every single note left for them. And that is not including the number of handwritten notes that are ineligible or are simply so poorly wrotten they make no sense

Why don’t people get their parcels delivered to the nearest relay?
Or does everyone whining here live in the middle of the Atlantic ocean?

It is 53 years since I started my first job but today is my last working day… haven’t slept well and it feels a bit surreal now and will take some getting used to. Not quite sure what I will do with all my free time but big trip planned in Jan so probably won’t truly hit me for a while yet…

Stay healthy and live long is the main aim though…

There are so many ways to fill your time. I don’t know how people find time to work. This thread turned into a discussion about retirement….

Enjoy your retirement. :beers:

I’m thinking of going back to work. Since retiring, there’s far too many demands on my time. Unpaid taxi driver, unpaid handyman etc.

I remember that happening to my uncle. Some of it was voluntary work but I remember him saying that he couldn’t remember how he held down a full time job.

It’s extended family with me. If they phone or text, it’s never to chat or enquire about my health. It’s a job they want me to do, or to drive them somewhere. I may as well become an Uber driver.

That reminds me Woolie, any chance you could pop round and sort out the gutters before Xmas. Best if you bring your own ladder.
Cheers :slight_smile:

That’s just a subset of the problems that come with being paid per parcel.

All the things you couldn’t do when you worked, because you didn’t have time…you can now…and after a while you think…yes I should’ve done it years ago.
