    Surely in this day and age the civil service should maintain sensible opening hours!

    Welcome to the civil service.
    I know a chap who used to work for the HSE. You start "any time before ten" and you finish at 4:30.
    How they can get away with it I'll never know.

    Motor Tax staff are not civil servants - they are public servants, the same as gardai. Same goes for HSE staff.

    BTW, that chap in the HSE was more than likely talking about flexi-time, where you have flexibility in starting / finishing times, but still have to work the correct number of hours overall.

    Not your ornery onager

    Don't get me started! I got the log book for the car I bought a few weeks ago in the post on Friday and wanted to tax the car straight away as it's already been three weeks driving around with the rf*** in the tax disc holder. I got onto the tax office to see if they could give me a PIN to tax it online. No. I work until 4pm, they work until 3.30pm so I have to take time off work to pay them a fortune for the privilege of driving a car that has already been taxed to death when new, and sitting in traffic wasting petrol that is also mostly tax.

    Makes my blood boil!
