Guards and tehir holidays

Fuinseog

what I am really wondering about is the efficiency of the system. A while back I was queuing for something simple like a stamp or signature on a passport application. there were only two people in front of me, but it took an hour. the guard on the desk cleared off and did not come back for 40 mins. could they not mange to have two guards on the desk, especially in an urban station? if you have to deal with the guards then you need plenty of time on your hands.woe betide he who does not bring his own pen

I'm sorry, but this is no different to starting your post with 'I just made this up...'.


Although, I did recently have to contact the gardai about a road traffic accident and was told the garda in question couldn't speak to me because he was on his break.

There was a caller on Joe Duffy last week saying that he was involved in a road traffic accident. when the case came to court two years later, the guard in question was on holiday so the judge dismissed the case.

it reminded me of when a mate of mine had to get in touch with a guard, but was told he had to wait two weeks as the guard was on holiday. after the two weeks he contacted the station to be told he was on duty but not at the station. then the guard was off duty. it took a month to have something relatively simple dealt with.


I do not begrudge them holidays and obviously they have to go on holidays at some stage but does everything really have to really on one person?

They are the reason this country is in the **** it is! no one else and Joe will agree with you

What the hell are 'tehir holidays'? Is tehir like some new religion? Are you complaining about people taking work off for religious holidays?

If so, you're racist.

Have you any proof that works? I think the whole judicial system is a bit skew ways as my one and only day being in court, the amount of cases the Judge suspended and put back for another date was shocking. Then he was dealing with cases previously suspended and even some back into court for the 4th or 5th time some due to Guards not being available the others.... haven't a clue couldn't understand the jargon.

everything seems to go to court here. other countries seem to have on the spot fines issued by the Gardai and litter wardens.

You left out the full stop at the end of your sentence.

Tehir

The Tehir are the various tribes of nomadic people that dwell in the Sea of Fire. Usually human, they have adapted to the harsh conditions of the desert, migrating from oasis to oasis. They are known to herd goats and yierkas.



I can't say I've ever seen any nomadic garda with goats:(
