We are on a right pig of a contract right now, working nights because they didnt want any noise, no drinking on site, no smoking outside the site, no using the toilets on the site, its one of those. Its one of those jobs that you think about it and you feel sick when your going in to do some work. Two nights ago the client, (who seems to be there 24/7 because she obviously hasn't got anything better to do), said to two of the lads....by the way...the whole building is covered by cctv, so no wandering around the offices 'inspecting things'. The implication was clear, she thinks we are a bunch of thieves, so today I went down there was with the numpty whos got a project managers head on, and she walks over... "Aww Im glad your here" I said, "because my lads told me what you'd said the other night, and I want you to be the first to know...We have already cased this joint and I can truthfully say there is nothing here worth nicking!" She went beetroot coloured and stumbled off,
I hate people who make assumptions, just because they see people doing manual work, they then take it upon themselves to brand everyone as some kind of scum bag. Am I the only one to feel this?

I feel round 2 coming on later this week..seconds out.

Is it you that's be stealing some threads off the forum? They keep going when we're not looking.


JOKE!!!!!


You should play a trick on her with the CCTV. I bet she's always watching it. You should all walk towards the building and then all just freeze as if it's broke. See if she comes out to see what's going on and then all laugh at her. mwahahaaaaaa

Umm, Ive been banned from site, it kicked off yesterday, and me and the lad that runs the sparkies, were having a coffee outside the site. The client complained to the contractor, and we have both been banned. I wouldnt have minded so much if I had been banned for being a bit naughty, but it was only a medium latte! Its a sick world we live and work in.
