What annoys me most
is that there is clearly an issue with the management of the underground, but what Bob doesn't seem to understand with his ridiculous stuck in the 1960s attitude, is that unless you get the media on your side and explain clearly what the problem is, everyone will think you're a cunt and have no sympathy for you.

As a person I hate Bob Crow, but he represents a union which voted for strike action, people don't strike just for the hell of it, they are losing wages, so there must be a problem which isn't being addressed by the management. But without communicating this effectively, the unions are going to get themselves emasculated and teh public won't care, until it's too late.

I assume you're mildly smug about the football this weekend?

I left the pub in disgust at half time
Because it was looking like a carbon copy of last week's Fulham fandango. Guess who missed the goals!
I'm sorry your team is getting all fucked up lad.

I'm none too happy about it either, but you've got to look on the bright side. If we do get relegated, tickets should be cheaper!

Couriers
or in particular, the Home Delivery Network.

I ordered some stuff online and they left a card saying we missed you today when we called to deliver, which is fair enough if they really require a signature...

Having today off work I arranged for them to redeliver today and I've been sitting a few metres from the front door in almost complete silence waiting for this motherfucker to show.

I wandered to the kitchen to get another cuppa and low and behold, the Home Delivery Network had ninja'd a slip under my door. I'm quite confident they didn't even try to knock because I'm sitting so close to the door.

Just going to get it redelivered to work this time, cunts.

They don't knock
They have you under surveillance and teleport the card onto your doormat as soon as you so much as walk to the other side of the room.
This I believe to be the only explanation.

Ring them immediately and get them to send the driver back.
They will tell you this isn't possible - it is. Ask to speak to the traffic room in the depot rather thant the customer services monkey. They have the power to send a driver back - if you tell them you actually saw the card come through the door and the bloke definitely didn't knock you might get this sorted - especially if you explain that you've taken a day off especially.

If they really won't budge, demand a Saturday delivery: again you'll be told it's not possible, and again it's a lie. Worst case make it your retailer's responsibility to get it to you either before nine or on a Saturday. They won't like it but the problem you have had today is really between them and their carrier. Remind them of this.

Sadly not. Even if I did they'd be ridiculously expensive.

Well unfortunately
by this point I had already rung them and the stupid scouser woman said nothing could be done until the driver had returned to the depot. Didn't know she was lying at the time though - she said they couldn't make contact with their drivers.

I'm on the arse end of a two day hangover so I'm in no mood to argue. I'll phone her back and if they can redeliver - fine but if not send it to my fucking work. Gaaahh

Cheers for the advice though

I'm not angry at all
I phoned in sick on Friday because I felt properly awful and went back to bed, only to wake 2 hours later feeling much better. That was good as I had dinner with my dad in the evening, over which he informed me that he was releasing a portion of our inheritance so that we can enjoy it now. Woohoo! My team managed a creditable draw with Bolton and careful study of the Match of the Day footage reveals that I'm not in any of the crowd shots, so my excuse should hold up.

Woke up late this morning having forgot to set my alarm so am continuing the illness charade for another day. It's a nice day,too, I might go for a run in a bit.
