Thats a lot of holiday time to be told you have to take. I'd rather work the interim days and have my holiday time when I want it, not when I'm told I have to have it |

Need a holiday after today, The former water inlet needed un bunging- scale build up due to hard- VERY hard water here. AND, the press saftey valve gave up the ghost and was blasting steam at only 20psi, good job the gaffer appeared after his holiday and his first job was to zip off to Heathrow area to get a new one and then I got proper messy fitting it only to have an issue with the mercury float swith- at least I could fix that one quite quick. Oh for a straightforward day. |
