(and I think that was gross)
At that point, the laughs of derision started..."Well, stone me! We've had cocaine, bribery and Arsenal scoring two goals at home. But just when you thought there were truly no surprises left in football, Vinnie Jones turns out to be an international player!" (Jimmy Greaves)!"

I'm contracted for .25 standby rate and 1.5 or 2.0 rate for callout depending if the weekend. Minimum callout 2 hours.
SDA is shit, but this is a representative issue. If you gave up 11am 1 hour tea break for a 15 minute one at 10 people may change.
But then again the **** it, it's not my job ethos is alive and well. Much to the dismay of fresh faced LTs out of the curragh who want to change the world but are caught in a burocracy fillabuster and cant wait till the end of their tenure to get into the private sectorSquad look this way, i will give a full and complete demonstration on how to post.

Nonsense me back side, alive and well in some locations, your very sensitive for a fella who reckons it doesn't happen.
I've done enough time to see some people's work ethic, I never said I was in the PDF but I have a pair of eyes and the ability to detect when someone is or is not there.
I didn't need a 6 month course for that eitherLast edited by Cryos; 6 January 2016, 09:20.Squad look this way, i will give a full and complete demonstration on how to post.

You made a broad statement that the working day in the PDF includes an hour long break at 11am.
That's a lie.
