TFGIFF!! (Yes its extra 'F's :P)

Man, its hard to take this job with a good grace... So many fingers pointed at the warehouse today... its like pick on warehouse day. Ahhhhh... one incident involving me was... they had a box about 1/2 a kg but it was big, and since big items are calculated by cubic weight, it was over 5 kg, and we put it with another courier... and they still haven't recieved it because it was going to Tasmania... so the customer rang and literally abused the poor girl... So she comes and almost takes it out on me... But I tried to explain why we did that, to save money because of the cubic weight issue... she goes 'oh just pack it in a smaller box'... like that's gonna be really secure. So me and collegue, we say 'f*** it' and then from now on, we ship all big items as small size and see how they like the $$ falling out of their pockets. Try to save some $$ and get told off... *sigh*. Our supervisor was also kinda having a big headache with all the big 60+ units in the warehouse. Apparently nobody set the alarms last nite... thats kinda dangerous, because if they broke in they can steal many units and we'd be up shit creek without a paddle. So he's like really worried. But what can worrying do? We got security alarms, but no patrols. So its kinda dodgy. Rent-a-guard is very expensive, so... yeah... he has a big headache. But on the upside, I might be able to get a cheap digicam soon. Our company isn't gonna sell DC in Aus anymore... So they are collecting unsold stock and then offering it to staff... and then selling them or keeping them as service units. So *crosses fingers* hope I can get one cheap. :D
