Sick of hearing from customers, "working late, huh?"

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

Yes, children under 16 are not included in the 1/3rd figure.

OK.

I agree w/cosmo-----your math is a bit fuzzy.

My easy solution to the OP..........stop working so late.

I don't see anyone finishing at 4:30. For some reason the public relates sunlight with their definition of late. Part of the point of the thread.

Just like those idiots that dress based on the calender rather than the weather. That always gets me. You see some nut wearing a winter coat when it is 60° out just because it is December.

You could take three month off like me

Been off a week already and haven't heard that one time

No not once

 

[JL 0513]

OK.

Look again, I posted two different figures. When you consider the whole population, only 45% of people work. 1/3rd not working figure excludes many segments including children.

Along with winter's short daylight comes this constant comment from customers. It's one thing if it's after 8, but I'm hearing it in the 5 o'clock hour. Just because it's dark doesn't mean it's late people. I don't have bankers hours like you. So for 3 hours a day I have to respond. I often say "always". In July, if I have a long day and it's 8pm I never hear it. Because it's still light out.

What do you guys say?

Totally agree. It gets annoying after a while. I usually don't even respond. Pretend like I didn't hear them say it

I'll take any silly comment over that one weird guy who just grabs the box and doesn't say anything.

A simple thanks is all I need.

Rookie. I've been off for 12 weeks now. With still another 4-8 to go. I may not be back until DST goes away. I might completely escape the "late" comments.

What are you not getting?

 

[Biofallout]

Yep you are approaching the age where you can pinch a hot milf on the ass and they consider it "cute" not "I'm going to kick you in the nuts then mace you in the face then call the cops and then file a restraining order... Lol

You're just peanut butter and jealous. I can't wait to hit that age

I heard that crap as soon as the time changed. My resi is in the upscale neighborhoods, so everyone is home at 4pm.

I don't want to be finished at 4:30, I like overtime.
