Idle hands

Idle hands do the devil’s work
True if you compare customers to demons, which most of them aren’t fuckin’ far off from:
“No young man I said an envelope with stamp”
“No, weren’t you listening I said “To England”
“Not the gas bill, only the power bill and only $20 on the phone, idiot”

Yeah, just grin and bear it.
Just wait till tomorrow when they’re cueing up on pension day.
Me and Bessy up on the clock tower.
I’ll show ‘em the meaning of fucking Postal.
Ha!

    When I worked at Australia Post and the stamps went up… I was tempted to ring in sick, because we would hear alllll about it!!

    Um…if i say yes, will that make my GOK part magically appear?

    On the upside apart from being in SA today, and canberra in a few weeks time…oh and a workshop on the 13th…i pretty much have a month of free time and no real excuses.
