Oh!
I always thought that you were the Gaffer.
I do beg your pardon.

I wish. This a a much bigger firm than mine! I am a one man band (that has
had apprentices in the past) that now subs for this firm.

Understood.
When I was an apprentice back in 1966 I served my time with a very old
school plumber. He was a total **** with me and worked me like a dog. In his
eyes I was a bone idle ******. This was the days of standing at the bus stop
in the ****ing down rain.
He once came back from his dinner hour and made me rip out every pipe I had
put in. I worked through my dinner hour. There was nothing wrong with my
workmanship. He was a ****.
I later found out that I was regarded as being the best apprentice on the
company.
I was the only one that got C&G.
My old trainer will be long dead now, I sincerely hope that he is burning in
hell for the hell he put me through.
