Winter of Discontent (202)2

If thousands of people running a small bussiness did not work 7 days a week 16 hours a day

Thousands of employed people would not have a job

Jeez us worked with employed people that start whingeing if they are 10 minutes late leaving the job / knocking off

With the usual we are not getting paid for this 10 or 20 minutes

Go into a builders merchants there hours are 8 till 5
Turn up at 4.50 and the order is going to take longer than 10 minutes and they start whinging

There appears to be a very simple answer.

Go and retrain and get a better job

What exactly do you do for a living ?

It’s funny how there are so many experts around on train driving.

That's one of the odd things about life. All the experts who know how the country should really be run are posting on forums or driving black cabs instead.

Tranny thinks that workers on minimum wage should be happy to work extra time for no pay.

I'm self employed, are you ?

Not sure of the relevance of the question though

Tranny thinks that workers on minimum wage should be happy to work extra time for no pay.

Which would automatically make them on less than minimum wage which is illegal, so the company shouldn't be trying to make them work.

The commie train unions are aiming for maximum disruption - on the days they are not striking there are "planned engineering works" and a campaign of not working overtime.

Now now, Trans. Personal question and you know certain moderators will send you a warning for that. Certain members have a right to play the part of a mystery man on here.

Just to check, you support wages set by a government minister, right?
