Work colleagues

My boss told me he was a Falkirk fan when I started here last month. My other boss told me said Falkirk fan was in fact a ***, who likes to pretend he supports Falkirk. Watching Celtic batter them on Sunday, the boss kept referring to rangers as “we”. I called him out on this stating I though he was a Falkirk fan. His reply was along the lines of “I’m a Falkirk fan with a slight leaning to Rangers”.

I worked in the SPS for 20 years and I seen my fair share of former squaddies, they were either ambitious as hell, guid c***s or humourless arseholes

Nothing against lads who’ve served their time in the forces, and who did it through choice, just like any other profession or vocation. It’s those who return to civvy Street with an immediate sense of entitlement for ‘doing their bit’ that can be a pain.

I was going to a site meeting one day and taking one of the juniors with me, the boss asked him to make sure he had the minutes of the last meeting, so he came sidling up to me and asked "How long did the last meeting last".

Couple of recent ones.

 

A boy appeared up from St Helens in the summer desperate to work for us, which weird. He got a start as anycunt would do.

Staying in a caravan, on work on time, doing fine but it just wasn't right.

 

He'd said when he appeared he didn't drink much, which turned out to be a small fib, so he gets booted out the caravan after flooding the landlords house bathroom at midnight with a shower after a sesh.


Moves an hour and a half away to get a 3 bedroom house to get his kids up from his ex wife , but still wants to work for us, on minimum wage plus a few pence, which I thought was mental.

 

He commuted every day on time for a fortnight, then I heard his ex wife had phoned his former landlord asking where he was, and he told her.

 

Couple of days later he was a no show. Stopped by the politzi, driving whilst banned :D


The boy had even driven to Merseyside on a Friday, back up to Tain overnight, then dropped the kids back on a Sunday. Twice.

All in his birds car. Whilst banned.

 

He got the tin tack and went tits asking 'why?', which considering there is no transport between Tain and his work is nuts.

 

I'll put the other in another post as it is longer.

Background....

 

Before this boy started with us, he had a few 'incidents'.

Best was going round to a then work colleagues house for a square go after getting abuse on Facebook.

He must have worked with The Terminator as he went round with an air pistol and an axe.

The door knock was obviously not answered so he did his "Here's Johnny" impersonation with the axe afore the cops arrived.

The 'victim' was renting the house from the boys dad :lol:

 

A few years afore, he took an axe to his PC , because he hated Windows ME , his maw fobbed him to the authorities for that, as she was trying to get rid of him lol.

* oh, also stole her car after tanning all her prescribed jelly's, and was found in a ploughed field by the cops with the foot to the floor, going nowhere.

 

Last week he too the gf and two weans to Euro Disney for a week and we all thought 'here we go', as his maw went AWOL in Spain last year for about a week after her flight back whilst on the piss and she's almost 60.

 

Unfortunately nothing of note until the way back, one wean playing up on the train North from Glasgow so he tells her to stop it or get a smack. He then moves her leg away as she was kicking him.

Get to Perth and the station is crawling with Transport police, "looking for somebody" he says to the gf. Aye, him.

Somebody had texted the pigs over him assaulting a toddler ffs. Dragged off the train, the gf and weans allowed to get one 3 hours later at 11pm, he gets huckled. BTP refused to do interview so he had to wait on CID from Glasgow to arrive, and they were pissed off as their shift was finishing, and it would be hours to get a solicitor so they told him to just 'no comment' it, which he did.

Released without charge in Perth in a summer jacket at 2am is shite but there was a train due at 5. Which was cancelled due to a derailment at Culloden :D  so it was a bus at 11am.

Gets to Inverness, meets a boy he knows and next thing is on the lash again.

Wife sees by online banking he's tanned £250 so she cancels his card, and he wakes up in the bus station around midnight without a scooby. Heads round to the lorry depot and gets a lift North, 4 hours kip and into work and I swear I have never seen anyone rattling as bad as he was.

 

Happy daze :)
