    I can't have THAT many complaints!

    I apparently didn't drink enough coffee this morning. Now, typically I'll only see one or two complaints a month total for my two routes. I went to the dropsite to go pick up the papers for my first newspaper route, and my jaw dropped. The first page of my top sheet was full of complaints, and there were more pages attached!

    Then I realized that it wasn't my route I was looking at. My route number is X-XX-2XX and I was looking at X-XX-3XX. Phew! Found my route, and there were no messages. No news is good news!

      Yeah, especially since that's a tiny route. Literally, it's about 10 papers. Makes me wonder what they're doing on X-XX-3XX, since that route looks to be about the same size...

        Ehe, half the time when you actually do get complaints, it seems that they're for a coworker anyway. I love that. I don't know how I get confused with some of my coworkers since, oh, there's the difference of GENDER!

          The best part is when that doesn't actually make a difference to management. They'll either use it as an excuse to give the "we must all improve" speech, or else they'll go the totally illogical route of blaming you anyway...
