Joe Duffy is making all this far worse, populist crap not taking into account realities.

It's all so dumb.

Maybe better bonus would be to cover all working people with a temporary reduction in taxes - ya know, help out with rise in the cost of living

private companies will be paying their employees for this additional bank holiday

My son has an eye appointment in the hospital tomorrow. ( One of his eyes is stronger than the other, he has to wear a patch over one and they check it every 10 weeks or so). I rang up yesterday to make sure it wasn't cancelled, and was told that it was changed to an over the phone consultation, 😒😒🤔.

An eye test over the phone, they are definitely worth more than a grand

go home yank!

Some people working in admin in hospitals got vaccinated before nurses did...so many entitled people.

IT is generally the handiest number in an organisation.

Yes yank it will be really hard to figure you out who you are

BPKS

These are the same HSE IT personnel who couldn't be disturbed over the weekend at the start of January when the Pcr booking system was going belly up!

Now, let's be clear, I earned a tremendous amount of money in a professional career over 30 years, I decided to do something completely different, less hours, less pay in Retail (Mobile phone Business) for 8 years before semi early retirement . Don't assume people working in retail are stupid or uneducated and I might add, deserving of abuse 😡

sonic85

Feck it - the patients should get the bonus too. They were also in a high risk place for long spells

archfi

'to put all of that in in six months was amazing'

That's your job which you're paid to do. Christ Almighty.

Dan Jaman

Does that include poking and peeking your Commodore 64, Janet?

Janet makes out IT to be like the lads keeping the coal engines going on the Titanic
