That's typical IBEC talk imo. They do more harm to employer - employee relations than a ton of fresh sprayed slurry. If you are in a union or know someone who is - go get some independent advice. Best of luck

Still no response from unions or anyone connected to them. People bitched and moaned about having to work in time to cover for the company closing yet 99% still doing it. A couple put in for AL for the time but were told they couldn't due to the missed work needing to be made up.

In my local park, there's a long mound of snow that's taking ages to fully thaw. And another mound next to the railway beside the park.

Can we change the thread title back to "snowmagedon" please?

I see at least one poster who was (rightly) condemning the actions of the looters in Lidl, thinks its hilarious now that there's a paddys day float in some bogger town making fun of it. They went and posted a pic of it in the YLYL8 thread.

What outrage? could you point it out to me?

I'm highlighting some utter hypocrisy. 'Ah those dubs are all scum, breaking the place up'. It's a different story when the culchies want to take the piss out of us. And especially when the lad who put the picture up in a humour thread was suggesting attacking the culprits only a fortnight ago.

Moi?

I didn't realise outrage and humour were mutually exclusive......sorry.......

.......I guess my expressed outrage about petty corruption now means I shouldn't find the Father Ted "resting my account" funny :rolleyes:

You cop on to yourself. There was a whole thread condemning what happened. Now just a couple of weeks after, its great craic altogether.

I am copped on. What happened was disgraceful, I was and am disgusted and know some of the employees personally also. Lidl themselves have the floats on their facebook page and are asking people to vote for the best one, there were two. So go unbunch your panties

Actually I was suggesting the Air Corps strafe the area and drop napalm......

......but the IAC doesn't have napalm and I'd question any fixed wing pilot's ability to accurately strafe a built up area at night in foul weather.....

......now if we had AH-40s, my obviously ridiculous comments might have had a veneer of even remote practicality about them

Thanks.

I'm not even sure the IAC have drop tanks from which you could fashion jury-rigged napalm weapons.

no an orange warning was issued. Due to melt in tbe afternoon. A bit of snow does not constitute an all out standstill. Met on the ball again!
