True, a local DOM does say he's only employing monkeys these days...
That's what happens when you pay peanuts. :sad:

No, I'm not a gambling man.

Royal Mail must take this more seriously than my former employer who just gave a warning to a colleague who uninated up an INTERNAL wall of a staorage building !

No problem Lounge Lizard,One thing that gets my back up at the minute at our DO is the amount of fag ends just outside our gate there are thousands of the things :crazy: ,it would probably improve the appearance if somebody urinated on them and washed them away :evil/mad

A few years back a PHG (nicknamed Rigamortis) on nights got sacked for urinating down a stairwell in our MC. :neutral:
Unfortunately for him there was a Manager coming up the stairs at the time. :left:

I agree lifesentence,but that is a totally different matter,in the first instance he urinated against some ones property and it would be reasonable to assume there was adequate toilet facilities nearby,out in the country up against a tree is perfectly acceptable because there would be no toilet nearby.
Thanks for your kind words Brothermagrew and I realise that you must play devils advocate,you are a lot more understanding than me :Very Happy
I would n't like to see it happen, but I am only saying that maybe a warning might have been enough. Paula Ratcliffe did something similar in front of a lot more people.

It was "a postie".
Who says it was a man ?
Well to begin with the chap in question was taken for a fireman and they thought the wall was on fire and the hosepipe was out, then they thought it was animal cruelty and someone was trying to strangle a maggot, then they thought it was .............. the list goes on.
