The 12 Days of Christmas PS Style:

Neither do lots of the others (including your's). Another rule for PS workers as usual.

Be carefull..Remember we are very sensitive at the moment Ref:Liam Doran

No one said it should rhyme,and Im not going to use my imagination,im not paid enough,if you want to benchmark us against a professer of english,i might consider it,if you add on some time off in lieu

Id imagine that making it rhyme would be at least an extra hours research and as we finish at half four(3?/2) ,that would bring in overtime..so now,if you insist it rhymes,then a contractor must be brought in ,but dont even think about letting him go when he finishes cos the unions wont be happy..

Also for health and safty reasons I must insist on further training in rhymeing.Futher to that while I am training once again you must get a contractor to do my job while im out .
Due to rain /snow /sunny conditions that may happen,I must insist on protective clothing.

Also this in a change in work practices and Im not too happy about this
so Im off to see my union rep, who funnily enough looks a bit like santa claus...to see how I can get out of it,get more money for it,or get time off for it or get someone else to do it..

Sorry lads couldnt resist it either..

 

[thedaras]

Now Im working for myself;
Ok so you want it to rhyme;
No problem..
I will work on it till its finished,and get it too you as soon as possible.
No dont bother getting training for me ,ill use my imagination and do some research online.
No of course the price wont change,I hope we can do businness again in the future and I value your custom....
I need this job and am happy to walk in park to get some ideas with my own umbrella should it rain.
Totally couldnt resist that one

A deluded, self congratulatory private sector employeeee!

Sorry, couldn't resist that one.

I
On the second day of unpaid leave my true-love sent to me a guarantee that I would get to take this leave later, thus rendering it paid again

?? This makes no sense. How does "getting to take this [unpaid] leave later" render it paid again?

 

[liaconn]

And it doesn't even rhyme either

 

[becky]

?? This makes no sense. How does "getting to take this [unpaid] leave later" render it paid again?

It seems that when times are good again we were to get 12 extra days annual leave.

 

[Caveat]

12 strikers marching
11 union reps exploding
10 increments and rising
9 sickdays choking
8 hours of overtime
7 failed attempts at reform
6 pointless staff per office

5 Priiiveliigee daaaaays

4 pointless meetings
3 phonecalls answered
