Sensible caller alert.

I've been offered a seat whenever I've been on with crutches, or similar, so I can't say there's a total lack of common courtesy.

The way I see it, if a pregnant woman would like a seat from somebody why can't they just ask??? FFS this is B*LL****

No because most of them are lucky to get 10euro an hour.

She's 9 months pregnant and you can't notice ?

Same thing in Holles St last year with the men sitting on chairs in the waiting room of the maternity hospital, while pregnant women stood nearby. Every so often a nurse would come out and let a roar at them

Sitting at the seats ?

Some pregnancies just look like fat.

A case of "Sit on this commode", so to speak.

How do you know how much tax he pays?

Oh Jesus, not this again.

He pays f*ck all Brian as he's outsourced his "services" via a company instead of being a PAYE Employee of RTE. So on his fees he pays corporation tax @ 12.5% after deductible expenses (of which there are many).

He's not doing anything illegal, he's simply taking advantage of a system which wasn't set up to monitor this type of practice and was designed for large companies and not "1 man bands", which his company is. This type of avoidance has recieved much criticism from many quarters.

What is galling however is that this behaviour is not morally acceptable to many, but given the man's constant protrayal of himself as a "Man of de peeple" and the fact he proclaims his heroes as Larkin, Connolly et al., it is at best profoundly hypocritical of him to do so.

That's the VERY short version. I'm happy to discuss this at length if you wish.

Joe works from 10.00-15.30, he's let that slip more than once.

That's when he actually bothers showing up in the first place.
