Something the apprentices these days dont have.We ran into a Fridgie the other day,7 yrs out of his time and cant solder even copper to copper..I wont tell you where he did his time and stayed with,just to say our state taxes are paying his wages.FFS.
One of the boys worked with him on a job the other day,no better than having a first year apprentice

Anyway,back on topic,i hope that was 'Interesting".

During my time as SM we would not employ those blokes either from the Services or Govts., Army was the worst. No way could they have the Work Ethic as required in private enterprise. We tried one or two but it was always the same old story. NFG.


One ex UK citizen came very close to getting the arse because he need someone to hold his hand & couldn't think.. No idea how he managed furriners after hours. I bet he was **** hot then.


On the then 2 Way it was like instructing kids at Kindergarten. Ok, there is The School of the Air now but it was hardly the same thing back then.

He used to introduce himself as SOC. Had lost his licence a number of times for DUI, I found him up the back of the yard one day having a beer while taking the empties out of the cab of his truck. I just shook my head and said "no wonder they call you SOC".

Next time he got caught doing this was by the boss, instant dismissal.

Fishing mate is named Ross.
But we call him George.
Ross is hearing impaired, so he’s a deaf ****.
This shortens to DC.

Was he an MI-5 operative perchance?


A bit of a convoluted way to get there. Why would you not call him Ross?

Huh? What was that?

Hi,
An apprentice turned up at the Repco counter for fourty pounds of compression.
An old cast iron cylinder head was duly wrapped in cardboard and string and given to him with strict instructions to be VERY gentle with it or it will explode.
Poor sod, hot day, about 1 mile to carry this, and no one was allowed to touch it till he put carefully on the perpetrator's bench.
Cheers

What was wrong with getting all shouty & yelling out "Hey Knackers, I'm talking to you".
