Do I rub people up the wrong way.
« on: September 04, 2017, 07:39:56 PM »
A few days ago the plasterer asked me what I thought about his gang on site.
My response was there shit and there holding me up as I'm having to put far to much wright.
I don't know why he flew into one as he asked my opinion.
The builder also asked me what I thought about the carpentry and my response was the same.
Today I turned up and the site was like a ghost town I asked where everyone was and was told they have been sacked.

If you want an honest answer ask away if you don't want an honest answer don't ask.  ;D

I know Mick, just like "Does my bum look big in this?"
Where's that 10mm socket got to?

In the same vein, apparently the correct answer to 'does this dress make me look fat' is NOT 'no, it's your fat that does that'

Success in life can be attributed to:
What you know
Who you know
Knowing when to keep your trap shut.

Back on track now
Well today I was pulled into the office apparently I'm not allowed to rant and rave and throw everyone's rubbish out off windows. Even though everyone was supposed to be out days ago
The plumbers have thrown a flunky using me as there excuse for being so incompetent telling the site agent I had thrown tools out.
Before getting in my new 3 week old van that someone has dented and scratched I was informed the warehouse down the road Iv just completed for them has to be done again as they put the walls in the wrong place.  >:(
What the hell have I done to deserve his crap  ???
Roll on retirement only another 30+ years to go! Yeah  ::)
