Whether they are subbys or not..recently i have had 3 separate guys who all have 'the tickets' but each with really no idea.. one who is really a danger to himself and is totally unreliable, then another who having gotten their tickets last year believes they are worth top whack.. not even any rigging exp AT ALL yet expects the ££££?! And the worst part is their work ethic in general...the latest guy is not sadly shaping up much better...
