    Good evening all, did my 9th day shift in a row today. Started with 1 day at Epping, 1 at Mac. Uni and 7 at Eastwood. Todays was an overtime shift, leaving me with only day off. The good news is I was supposed to be starting at noon and finishing at 8:00 p.m on Monday but I got a swap with a person working at the same station so I'll be starting at 8:00 a.m and finishing at 4:00 p.m. Enough time to get to the game at Brookie. I wonder how people get rostered 4 and 5 days off in a row. This year I've only managed 3 days in a row and they always want me to work 2 of them.

    Can not whinge when your getting overtime Geoff.

    Just think about your last job !!!!

    You can allways say no to overtime.

    This week I did 5X12.30pm to 11pm's and will be happy when I get next weeks pay !

    You know what it is like to be looking for a job at our ages.

    Yes I did say I was available for Saturday and Sunday afternoon but that wouldn't work now following the swap as I start at 8:00 a.m. I do say no sometimes especially if I'm buggered or I have something I'm going to.
    In other news I made it to stage 2 of Transport Officer on Thursday and my transfer back To Bondi Junction has been approved, its just a matter of when. I'm going back because of the travelling involved especially to Eastwood and too many bullies and gossipers in my present area. I was bullied on Wednesday not only by a psa but a dickhead Supervisor as well. This is after doing 7 hours straight without a break, 4 at Eastwood and 3 at Epping after nobody had been there for 4 hours. The trouble is nobody does anything about it. Ive reported it to the Union and Michael said he would ask the Shift Manager what happened. I've had enough of it. I could understand being bullied if I was a bludger, but I had been busting my guts.

    Woohoo I'm part of the mobile internet revolution. Posting from my Nokia E71 at work in my meal break. I was a bit slow to take up the new technology as I am with most technology except colour t.v. I bought one of those suckers the month it started broadcasting in 1975. Had a Rank Arena, it was a good set and lasted well over 10 years. Not all programs were broadcast in colour though at first in the trial period. The first show I saw in colour was Daniel Boone (pity of trivia there)
