How about planning departments?
There is no point calling before 10.30 or after 4.00pm
I know I try lol
or
the blokes who empty my dog bin that's bloke(s), one jumps out of the van while the other sits there watching.
or the library van with a qualified librarian £32k on board (union insistence), which parks outside the councillors house on an estate where every house has two cars?
That planning office is abit like my bank, noone there either, well not in this country.
You are very lucky to have your own dog bin we have to share. Perhaps it is to keep the steering wheel sterile."If you act like an illiterate man, your learning will never stop... Being uneducated, you have no fear of the future.".....

The new single tier state pension is actually very good news for public sector employees. They'll pay a little more in NI, 1.4%, but they'll get a better state pension as a result which will be worth much more.
The govt have already said they won't reduce pension accrual for public sector schemes to make up for the increased employer NI contributions, so for just 1.4% extra they get better occupational pensions than almost anyone else plus the same state pension as those who don't have such generous schemes.0 -
