I have a couple of students labouring for me for the holiday period. Initially I thought they both had serious hearing problems ........Ipods!......eventually I had to get serious with them when my polite requests and reasoning didn't work. They always claim they can hear over them but we all know differently especially with the volume they play them at. The Ipods stay in the van now and isn't open to arguement.

 

[White Room]

You tell the youngsters today and they don't believe you Dom:lol:

I know grown men(in their 50s) who can't even knock a nail home ! labourers too.:lol:

 

[Pebbs]

When I first started out, the very first estimate I went out on was with my old boss. He said to me 'right missy! I want you here at 6 sharp or else! and remember to cover your self up or your distract the men from their work!'
Next morning I was up at 4.30....got ready and reached the office at 6.03.
Hes already sitting there waiting...
Your damned late! he screamed.:incazzato:
Im sorry boss...are we going now?
Not before you've made me a cuppa! he screamed back.

Best days of my life they were....

Dom, this kid on your job reminds me of the Old Timer electrician I used to work with many years ago. He'd see a kid like that, not listening, not paying attention, doing it his own way...and he'd say in a slow Southern Virginia drawl:

"You can't (pronouned CAYUNT) teach (pronounced TAYEACH) that boy nuthin'----ya gotta learn him (pronounced LURNUM)" :lol:

 

[Scott]

Id be careful pronouncing that first one! :yikes:

 

[Pebbs]

I just spat my tea out laughing when I read Robs post again. Careful Rob you could get banned for using words like that!
