Rake aboot 4,929 Posted January 10, 2016 Report Share Posted January 10, 2016 Not doing too bad ta Rake, I've just left a 2/3 job to go 2/2 commissioning so we'll see how it goes lol. You gone 3/3? No not yet. They are putting us on 90 day notice to try and lay folk off and raid our wages, but we`re staying 2 and 3 for now. 3 and 3 will finish it for me. No way I`m being away from home 7 months a year and paying 40% tax for the privilige. I`d rather make coffee in costas with no stress than do that shit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
