Can they do that then, is it allowed.

 

Strange how mobile phones work all day every day except monday mornings:confused1:

 

HAHA!!! Sooo true,Ive one really good ground guy that has made it 1 monday out of 2 months!!!

 

Not his fault "i just cant stop drinking":sad:

Always makes me laugh when they don't turn in Monday, make no contact, but come in Tuesday as if nothing happened !

 

And look all hurt when you tell them they are no longer required!

I had one turn up on a midweek morning still drunk from the night before and expecting to work around saws all day. We parted company there and then,should have seen his face.

just read the first few points on the 30 odd point list posted above. That'd be enough to scare the **** out of ya . Half of that is the responsibility of the boss, or at least a crew leader.

 

Not necessarily. Besides, most "bosses" and crew leaders were excellent groundmen first.

 

I suggest printing the article and then customize it to suit your needs. Add/delete what you want, I don't mind. That article is for everyone to benefit from.

Yep I posted in haste and also a bit rude to Mistert who was only sharing information and got his head bitten off by me. I have given myself a slap:sad:

 

I think the mighty list has a positive roll to play, in demonstrating that the groundie has an important and skilled roll. If I had an office wall, I would put the list on it, for this reason alone. I did save the article at the time, with a view to doing exactly what you say Masterblaster.
