    My invite must have got lost in the post :(
    TS could invite us all and still not make a dent in her stash by the sound of it!!:eek:
    when peeps are doing these burger shops, are you using the PP from the previous day as part payment?
    If so, does the SA ever say anything?
    I always feel guilty handing over a big PP and receiving another one back from the same shop.

    I used mine next day on a 1/2 price online shop!!;)

    Agreed, so why would SSM defend her colleagues?

    Please note Locarr, I have no intention of arguing. I clearly explained the issue of risk management and the difficulty undertaking this role. I do wonder why you think that this was defending colleagues, and why you have taken this so personally.

    I have never participated in any heated debates on here... I will not respond to any of your comments that are clearly made to be confrontational at the best, and bullying at the worst.

    You attributed blame, I pointed this out.

    SS act on the quality of the information given, in a balance way. The consideration has to be what information was given, the concerns are in relation to emotional harm which is extremely difficult to prove, it becomes a case of he said/she said, and harms children further. SS can only act on evidence.

    Not covering backs.. pointing out the facts.

    I am not arguing Locarr, but I strongly believe in children's rights and work very hard for these. It is a hard life, with my children using different names in schools, alarms in the house, Osmand warnings, significant threats and assaults.... long hours and rubbish pay. I do not accept criticism of ss from anyone that has not walked a step in a social workers footsteps!

    S$m totally agree
    :hello: The grass is not greener, it just looks that way from a distance :hello:
