If Michael O'Leary came on to defend Ryanair charging for toilet use Damo would somehow make it boring, and cut him off early so we can listen to Maura from Tullamore talk about her sore toe.

...that she stubbed going into said toilet !

"and he charged you for that maura, janey mack !"

my friend

Do the whiner realise that their 'entitlements' exceed teachers wages in Spain or Italy

(countries that have not been bailed out by the IMF)

Even more hilarious was her complaining about having to pay PRSI on earnings outside of her 'entitlements'

She objected on her opine that she was inelligible for benefits !!!!!!!

Another terrible, traumatic, fear inducing, nauseating










episode of Liveline.

My darling Clementine

Lapin

Sounds like a normal job description for an Au Pair.

signostic

Celtic Tiger days still exist for some people...not Clementine I may add...

JonathanAnon

"She was working all day and all of the night."

But her boss was decent enough to stick on a bit of The Kinks while she was working.

RadioRetro

Damo's sounding particularly monotonous today, oh wait, that's static. Damn RTE transmitter maintenance!

I may activate RTE Online and be 30" behind everyone else.

[EDIT] And just as I do so, the radio bursts back into life.

Is Clem the au pair union rep?

constitutionus

"do ya have any other cases ?"

"oh yeah i knew this girl worked for some lad called Gerry, coke all over the gaff, fecking disgrace damo !"

Yakuza

It's very similar behaviour to those who brought Filipina women over here and had them basically work like slaves. Money doesn't buy class, or humanity. Au Pairs are slightly above the slavery line, in that they're not under threat of being deported.

SEPT 23 1989

How much are these "Au Pairs"?

Just like thousands of Irish people here being exploited by their employers.

"Its gone beyond a joke"

Big Daddy Cool

clementine seems to have done alot of research on this topic, she should get a job with the liveline crew, except she might be over qualified

jetfiremuck

Wtf......this is just au pair shop talk... Talk to two barmen about working conditions.....come on.

signostic

Damo "does it change the view of our country?" Damien is worried about our reputation...

SEPT 23 1989

totally leaving the country Damo

Atlantic Dawn

Eating again, ffs.

Lapin

His Au Pair was a bad cook.




Sorry.

baldbear

How depressing. Good man Damo....you should be a councillor

jcf

Great bedside manner there Damo...
