  1. If theres a good profit in the job then why not stay overnight at a cheap B&B near the job site to save travelling
  2. Do bottom line if im reading this right,an inexperienced member of staff is using a blunt saw...a blunt saw is a dangerous saw.If he cant/wont sharpen it,hes draggin brush and raking up cuttings.Dont care how promising he is
  3. I also subbie climb and in my experience having doing the right thing doesnt pay the morgage.You can advise the contractor/client but id rather go home paid than go home happy.just my opinion mate
  4. If your knackers are getting pinched you need to change your harness mate,or maybe your just a bigboy...ahem nuff said
  5. Debateable,depends on the climber and wot your comfortable with and your skill level i suppose
  6. Yeah silky your bang on mate.Earned me a bollocking too
  7. Thankfully its not often but i have too admit ive done it in a rush:blushing:
  8. The worse bad habit,cause i have a few,is cutting at neck height,not good.
  9. I thought our job was dangerous haha,yer bang on james:biggrin:
  10. Bit of advice for you all,i know its bloody hard but try and avoid the booze,even now when i go on a session ive been known to chase people about for a fag-u have been warned!!!
  11. Well done so far to all you stoptober guys.Keep going!
  12. Yeah theres a big difference between small items being taken off the back of a van spur of the moment to organised raids emptying an entire yard of its machinery.Its all too common im afraid,u see it a lot on facebook etc
  13. My own fault,i thought nipping round the back of a block of flats to see thursdays 1st job it would be ok.Wiley ninja theiving barstewards...literally 2 minutes and it was gone

  16. Oh sorry forgot to say-your not a dumb ass!
  17. I work for my local authority and i know EXACTLY what you mean and how you feel.Simple fact is it a big decision and only you can make it.The real teller for me when i left my last job was gettin up in the morning and dreading going in-thats the point you know somethings got to give.If the job and the people are making you miserable as well as accusing you of theft,then its time to go.You never know,a year from now you may look back on this as the best decision you ve ever made.Good luck-keep us posted
