Dealing with lazy staff!

You start work, at 07:00 and stop work at 17:00, water keep in a back pack together with food. I just say as I do myself. Very big meal in the morning a full dinner, next food at 12:00 take some from your pocket eat while you work. Petrol I used to have connected to me on a rope, careful so it does not leak gives a mad red colour on the skin. Talk only of work, some folks want a carry on, they are better suited as sale team where they can do what they like talk a lot. Folks don't know what work is till they had to sit with a fire going to clear up the saw in minus 25 or worse. And fell frozen trees that snap so easy in that cold. Life is full of wanna be think they can work people, I have came across very few knowing what working really means, and they was all 60+ this means new generations is lazy most of them.. Most are talk talk talk.

I must admit I've never worked in minus 25, I've worked hard mind.

 

Why would anyone work 07.00 to 17.00 if they can get enough money doing shorter days?

 

I'm lazy because I choose to be. I'm here for a good time, not a long time.

 

Each to their own mind.

 

By the way, how have you got time to be posting here if you are hard at work from dawn til dusk?

We all had different circumstances during the early years, Britain seems to have had it softer in the forestry. I was used to work very far away, away for months, make good money. But I find it hard to adjust from that life to this. Was no basic pay we got paid for what we did, so no place for slackers. Still can't take a break anywhere, I tried but it feels so pointless. And to listen on folks just want to hear there own voice, words without meaning. I get bored on that.

Surely though stef you are taking regular breaks to post on this forum?!?! Also you are talking to people on here rather than people around you in real life. Hmmm. There is nothing wrong with talking/interaction I find it makes our team a lot more productive.

Luxury...a walk in the park mate.....when I were a lad, we started at 3 in the morning, after walking barefoot to the site in knee deep snow, for ten miles, then we made a fire to warm the wood for a bigger fire to warm our hands so we could hold the saw - crosscut mind! No chainsaws in my day - then wed work twelve hours before breakfast, which was usually a squirrel, eaten raw because no time to cook it....and that's if we were lucky!!
