Let me guess, was he of Indian descent?

To what end?

Being on parcel rate the Indian drivers as a rule will take out more work than they can handle. They aren’t meant to deliver after 7pm or sundown in busy periods so should be setting up their loads accordingly but they tend to take out too much and can’t complete it in time. If you continually return undelivered items to depot you will get sanctioned so many just keep delivering

Busting their arse making a quid, how dare they.

We all piss and moan about deliveries taking too long then when they pop in after dinner we crack the sads.

F*ck we're precious.

7pm in the winter months is supposed to be the cutoff with that pushed for daylight savings, peak periods etc but 9pm is the latest. They shouldn’t be delivering 9pm or later but it happens and if there is a complaint the driver will cop it. No one complains and it’s all good

My deliveries usually arrive after 9pm

Just got a " Happy New Year "

More often than not it’s the daughter that goes down

Was meant to be travelling to Melbourne for the week for some site tours, training and dinner with the national CEO, got a call last night having to cancel it as my back up here won’t be in until further notice due to a family emergency.

Gone from easing into the Easter break to doubling my already hectic workload, it could worse though, I could be going through what my colleague is.

As others have posted in recent times having problems with rats and mice.

Started a few weeks ago and got my trusty pest controller in from Hindmarsh Pest control who laid heaps of baits etc

Rats have disappeared but been finding dead mice under my car every morning which i couldnt work out

This morning moved the car and 2 dead ones on the ground but this time there were particles of cloth and leaves on the ground.

Couldnt work it out so lifted the bonnet of the vehicle and lone behold between the radiator and engine there as mice nest been constructed out of leaves and this cloth, have noticed some wiring has started to be chewed away so hopefully i got to it in time

With the amount of driving i do seems strange they decided to build there

Best to worry about bigger issues rather than rats and mice ...

He loaded up my bait stations in the shed this morning. Hopefully the blighters I've seen traversing my grape vines are soon eradicated.

Good call.
He would have seen plenty in his 40+ years in the business.

Sludge is on the mend, Steve has filmed some cool stuff, new series about to land.
