Default NOW I HAVE SEEN SOME SIGHTS ON A BUILDING SITE BUT..........
This takes the fookin piss


Went to do some work on a new site today and was greated with this, what a joke.

You can see that the planks holding this up are perched right on the end of 2 bricks. Wont take alot to tip them and the skip could seriously cause some damage

Walked off the site and told the foreman that i wont be coming back to a site like that

And the bricks are the bait

I ASSUME that the fork lift truck driver on the site moved it up there on order from the foreman

I didnt hang around to find out why......

If that was the first thing that greated me..........No fucking way was i going INSIDE the building

Nothing wrong with that,your all soft ,thats why this great country of ours is going down the pan.You don't think we owned 2/3 rds of the world with the British empire with that sort of attitude.

I'd like to see you all moaning in Africa fighting the zulu on behalf of the great queen Victoria,i can see it now "the spears are to sharp they could have someone's eye out with one of those".

Stop being picky or these nice Eastern European boys will do the same job for half the money and work twice as long!!!

ive not worked on big sites for a few years,but some were proper death traps,but never seen anything as lethal as that
maybe it's a piece of modern art by tracey emmin ?
