What happened to the thread "Hopeless", in which everyone was bashing the G day workers?

Suddenly got pulled a few days ago...

Yes its interesting because there were a number of replies as well, so it can only have been pulled by the moderators probably at the insistence of management, at least he is more entertaining than TT who makes a genuine effort to replace management

So we in CX have a problem with G day workers. In that some loath these workers, some say they loath them but actually work G days and some are of a new breed and think that they should help out when asked.

Is there anyone from KA who can give a persecutive from over the road?

KA, are you regularly called on G days?

Do you answer the phone?

Is your compensation the same?

What is your thoughts on those who work G days and "rob" those on reserve?

Yes.

Yes.

No. I am trying to have a life and not an existence.

Not sure but it would need to treble to be worthwhile.

They mustn't have much money in the bank or sound investments but since we aren't in CC I can't really comment. I'm told, sometimes the most outspoken, work on G days. But that seems kind of strange.

tony, tony, tony.

You are a very poor copy of The Management. It's been 'done'.

Also, is English your first language?

Actually the pulled thread was about someone working L days, not G days.

I wouldn't have thought Easter would be his idea of a holiday anyway!

True.

Easter is, after all, a Christian holiday.

Working an L over Easter is really getting into the spirit of things

Although they do it in the Pines with real nails!

As in it's potentially libellous. And I'm pretty sure no one really wants to enjoy their day in court over it.
