I had some real-ar*ehole slimy saleman pester me last year about signing me up with these .....
waste of money an completly destroys trust /relationship with lads working for you ...
as a boss now ...its a very hard line to be one but you can without being a Bast**d..
always remember a chippy mate banksy on a site years ago being given the run about by a hitler like foreman ..
they the joiners were waiting for the roof trestles/timber for this big development an they were having an early brew/snap ..along comes the lil foreman an goes shouting an swearing at banksy, he calmly looked over his paper at the ranting foreman an said "listen pal were aving a early brew ok, as the sections an timber aint here ...OK!
foreman turning red an viens popping tore away his Racing Post an said , I dont F***ing care there is no timber , just try looking busy ,OK"
banksy jumps up an starts dancing aroung him ,laughing an whooping ...
the foreman screeches
"what the f**K are you doing you crazy bastard , ????"
banksy stops an looks down at him an says ,
"Im doing a F**king jig an being busy ,you lil tos*pot !"
foreman wailed "get off my site your fired ..FIRED /SACKED ,Get gone !"
the site was shutdown that second as we walked off ..
as the managers/owners sent the foreman to another development ,banksy was back the next monday ....
an regarding firms using Trackers bet the Gas board use them ..
many moons ago a good pal of mine Dave,
was a trainee Area Gas engineer (big manager job , would lead too running his district ...)
well he was a bit of a quiet one at work all polite an real bosses man ..
unlike after hours he was in the TA , 4bn the Paras at his barracks ..Liverpool docks
(well I got monkeys on the brain at times but HIM...a complete headabal !lol)
He was a mentalist , but every monday morn he was Mister Office Manager ...
lots of the service engineers who had had him work with them ...thought he was a GOD ,
after hours ,
HE WAS 24 party person,
but by day a switched ON Cat ,
he could pinpoint a class 2 escape within inches ,
he was Mr Gas
the office girls thought of him like Brad Pitt of today .. he had a different lass every night ..an even dumped gals were ok with him ...as he left them like a true STAR !,its me , not you IM SOooo SORRY ,*sniff*
Til he went on a jolly to the lights at blackpool one weekend
an was involved with a lot of trouble,lol fights an kerfuffles ....throwing a copper onto the beach off the prom ,lol
using his maestro gas van as a battering ram on the doors of a seafront club called "Sands !,
after he was beaten an thrown out unfairly an then being punched trying to explain
(as lots of you will know Bpool bouncers are ANIMALS )
for stopping a bloke smacking his g/f an then she to turned on him ,lol
he escaped the scene
but was then seen back scuttling some lass near the purple Penny arcade by police who gave chase ,after totally throwing 6 coppers around the place
he was off again on his legs , he went in the 007 club an he had a Fantastic weekend there
he was apprehended on the 8.15 train back to Manchester ... by a ticket collector who the police had sent on to make him come off the train as they feared being smashed to bits .....
the ticket collector sat beside him an said
"Listen Son ,
they say your a nutter ,
I dont know you look a nice fellow to me ...they dont want to come an get you as you will hurt them ..coppers eh .. waste of time ,
we will hit Kirkham soon we slow to crawl if you jump you will get away ,
but you look a decent lad who may of made mess in blackpool ,sort it out sonny jim ...an get on with your life ..."
dave left the train at Kirkham an was roughly/dragged cuffed an put in a black mariaaa
he was beaten black an blue in the cells at Preston Police station after" he attacked a copper ",say the police even though he was handcuffed behind his back all the time in detention /custody ..
These facts were from the paper an the ticket fella even fella fell out with the rought handling
Dave was given a 3yrs suspended sentance after the judge at the courts said , "Im in awe of you, young man, but this doesnt excuse your behaviour , you let many people down an your military career is over too ...!"
Last I heard he was running/training around the estate for a try out with the Army , for the SAS TA...
last I ever seen of him ..a old bloke from the estate derrick(plasterer ) whos lad is in the regular SAS....
he thinks Daves there now an "on active service "(said whispering to me !), lol....
you can listen this from others an think BOL**CKS
but Derrick-my-lad you believe it ...
anyone who met Dave , just immediately liked the bloke ...
lol...lol
Im a bit tearful here as I remember my old mucker ..
"Keep well dave an God Bless you !! ..!! "(bet even God has you as His no1 Son now ..lol
I dont know what it is .. never met this before in a person .. he was capitvating , funny, kind/cruel , just a 1st class type of guy ...
sorry unless you met such type person you may think the monkeys in my brain are on acieeed ...
