Yes, point taken👍🏻, I just personally wouldn't make a complaint that might lose someone their livelihood

"We quite often pick up work from houses backing on to the rail so that's also a nice bit of bounce"

 

You keep mentioning bounce, what is that exactly?

This maddness how you all react but funny especially little grass,s

 

Few facts,

I'm my own boss, but the guy I answer to regarding rail work is 10 times worse then you can imagine

 

I'm not on NR I'm on LuL so we can only work when trains are NOT running "01:00 - 04:00"

 

On days we normally work short hours due to train frequency if it's raining we can't work

 

We hit our targets giving to us "or we wouldn't be working would we ?"

 

My work on the rail is cushy that's why I'm there and it allows me to pick and choose my own tree Work as all of us on here enjoy our work I like to do 3 to 4 jobs a week I pass the rest on or sub out etc

 

I probably average 15h a week rail & same on my own tree Work so do less hours then the average working week

 

I get to pick my kids up from school go to there assemblies etc it's a real good work life balance

 

I leave for work at midnight back in bed by 4/5 back up by 10ish nip out on tree job 12ish done by 3ish "remember I cherry pick my work" spend loads of time with family

 

So not all bad is it and like said there's a 1000 difference contractors doing a 1000 different jobs on the rail all getting there slice, my personal no 1 trade that does sweet FA and gets paid well OTT electricians you'd be shocked "pardon the pun" what they get away with and top earning blue collar job has to be a T.O " technical officer" apox £500 a shift plus O/T

 

It's a big wide world out there ya gotta grab every opportunity.......

I know plenty of people that have been made redundant through no fault of their own. I wouldn't feel particularly guilty if someone lost their job after conning the taxpayer and boasting about it online.

Bounce-as i understand it-is work you get whilst doing your job.

For example if your doing a tree in a garden and a neighbour asks you to do there tree aswell-that would be bounce work.

Bounce, it's extra money !! We're working rail side getting paid then wile were there we,ll do a tree job for some one and get paid on top !! Double bubble, or sell the fire wood to them for a drink etc

 

It's divided up almost the team
