FAO Porky:
Yes, you may be one of the oldest trades in RAF but as for keeping us safe in our beds!!?? Who told you that one? Your duties extend only to (unconvincingly, see my earlier post) lift drunken airmen and harass the rest of the RAF who are doing, in general, important, operational jobs. Your main duty, that of barrier technician, is being taken away from you, not to be given to a professional outfit such as M.O.D police, but SERCO security housewives!!! The best bit about it all though is they even make them wear your daft hats and fluorescent coats!
