Apprentice has reported me to his Mum
I told the three apprentices to grit the car park at work this morning.
One of them has "told on me to his Mum". Apparently shouting "spread the ****ing grit around you stupid ****s, don't just dump it in a ****ing pile" is not acceptable behaviour. I would not normally have been that abusive but last night they were asked to grit the car park and they decided not to as they thought I would not notice:-) I did happen to notice that the car park had not been gritted at 7am this morning when it was minus 3 and the car park was an ice rink. -- Adam |

BAH! Kids today..... When I were a lad you got a ******* file around the ear for leaving burrs on steel.... and ringing in the ears from the berating off the instructors. Remind the ungrateful little bastid that he's lucky to *have* an apprenticeship given the economic crisis and that there are 5000 other people looking to fill the position when you sack him for being a lazy, ungrateful, self centered waste of spunk dribbling space. |

Easier said than done when they don't give a toss, have no self discipline, and don't see why they aren't paid as much as a professional footballer We're not talking big companies here with human resources and training schemes, it's a one man band whose work ethic is getting on with the job If you paid someone to mow your lawn for example, you wouldn't be best pleased if they did half then buggered off down the pub, would you? What would you do, give then a stern motivational talking to and blame yourself for them not completing the work because you had other things to do other than watch them throughout the job? -- geoff |

Should have been sacked immediately or in the next incident. |

Colin Bignell- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - "Bullying?" your whining PC sort are the exact ones f**g up our economy. Yes bullying. I have had considerable experience of that, as it was my father's management style. When I took over the business and started to make the employees feel part of the business, productivity doubled within a year. I don't call that f**g up the economy. Perhaps you do. The reason they didn't grit the car park is they are idle gits. Should have been sacked immediately or in the next incident. As I have said elsewhere, I've employed a number of school leavers who, according to their teachers, were idle gits. They all became useful workers and one even runs his own business now.

Ah, it's Mr "Expert on Medical Devices", have you worked out that the PIP board were covering up during inspection of their premises yet? After you loudly declared that no such inspection was necessary the CEO admitted to hiding the filler and the records during each inspection that you claimed never happened. Still, good to see you know as much about motivation as you know about the regulations pertaining to medical devices. |

I gave up on that thread when it became obvious that you were not reading anything I wrote and were, instead, replying to a dialogue that only you could hear. Despite what you have convinced yourself of, at no time did I claim that a Class III medical device could have a CE mark attached without an inspection. Colin Bignell |

Not. You were caught out on your woeful ignorance of the MDD, and your frequent claims that controls applied to Class 1 devices were the same as applied to Class 3. You banged on, over and over again that there is no inspection regime and no right of any medical devices supervisory body to inspect the records of medical devices companies, other than to show compliance of their quality systems with the MDD. It shows impressive chutzpah, as well as spectacular ignorance to argue that was not the case, as you have, when your posts are archived on Google. |
