Your not too far from the truth......I personally know 9 guards and 7 of them have more than 2 properties

Off topic:

I missed LL and Mooney on Friday. I wanted to catch the latter to hear all the "disgust" about Ireland not getting into the Eurovision. LOL

Is it worth my while finding it on the player?

Roger_007

This ex-guard's attitude is very like a certain retired Garda Commissioner......he sounds 'disgusted'.....!

Odyssey 2005

Couldn't be contacted by radio. He thought he was Serpico

snubbleste

This is ok radio for a change. Public servant working practices being exposed.
Surprised the Garda Press Office have not contacted the show so far

Mike Guide 69

That Phone Watch ad is a bit disturbing!!!!.......

JM Skipton

Joe you can't talk, look at the way you treat your very own Garda reserve equivalent....D'Omen and only letting him discuss really minor topics

PauloMN

Is Garda overtime included in their contracts?

That's the problem with some of these jobs - people assuming they'll get overtime hours, that they can just take sick days etc..

This caller typifies the attitude McCabe was being subjected to

AK333

Maybe Sergeant McCabe did direct Guards to crimes, only for his boss (inspector, etc) to stymy it and direct the Guards in other directions

Answering a telephone in a garda station is a very important job, especially when it is being recorded

Joe knows the experience needed for taking a phone call.

they should give them an allowance for it and then they should give the other lads an allowance for not getting the telephone allowance

snubbleste

It's called rent supplement!

ThisRegard

Being handed a report with all these facts is not what you'd call discovering something Joe.

Obviously wasn't Gill Ette, then.
Not the first time an Austrian with unusual facial hair has dominated Europe.

Roger_007

Rents up 14%!......Much rejoicing in the Gardai?

ThisRegard

I was just going to say what the guy has said Joe, there's probably plenty of people on rent allowance on that area, so they want to spread it out around the city so they don't have socio-economical black spots Joe, simples.

An Claidheamh

It sounds to me like they want SOME DIVERSITY involving non rent supplement people?
