Most of them spend all day on there bloody phone or moaning that its cold or its to wet or to hot. Any excuse not to work. Then at the end of the week they want payin top bloody dollar. Thankfully we have had a couple of lads that are awesome workers,one lad even offered to work for nothing just wanted the experience.
