So, after 2 weeks of barely sleeping I asked my GP for some sleeping pills.. she wouldn't let me have any..
The sleep I have been getting is so full of nightmares that its better not to sleep really.So on monday I finally gave in and ordered some sleeping pills off internet.. they posted them on Tuesday.. When they still hadn't arrived today (and I hadn't received any other post either for 3 days) I called the post office.. seems all the post men and sorting offices in my area are on strike!!!
Now, I know people strike.. and I know their reasons (they want £2k a year more money!), but they have informed NO ONE.. So I have £70 worth of stuff sitting in a sorting office somewhere.
Oh joy oh joy. And they say it will be probbaly another 2 weeks before they stop striking.
So, on top of that, none of the charity mail that I recieve can get to me. None of the cheques that I have been waiting for and we desperately need to be able to pay in to the bank so we can pay our web site renewal..
It just disgusts me that they didn't inform anyone about this.
And I get to carry on in the state I am in until the post men (who earn a pretty good wage anyway for blue collar workers) deign to start working again.
Maybe I should just drink myself stupid.. do I get to sue them for turning me into an alcoholic??
