pretty much perk-stealing. I have fronted-up all-comers who wanted to have a go. (women excluded )

got into work 15 years ago really early to use the franking machine to send personal Christmas Cards. That saved me £50.

Remember finding some red-diesel to fill the van on one site we visited. £80 'saved'

Did loads of internet shopping, if I got in early. BB guns, and stuff like that,...

anyone care to spill some beans

Of course, deleting 'internet history' is standard practice

Never did I'm afraid banks tend to take a dim view of staff liberating money.

Even when I was at M&S the staff would regularly take sweets from open packets. I didn't want the embarrassment of being sacked for trivial theft. My mate was at it all the time and I kept warning him eventually a manager caught him and he was sacked for eating a 50p doughnut.

Now if I was an MP that would be different snout right in the trough.

somebody remind me of the singer and title of the song about a Ford car worker. Country and Western i think. Stealing bits of cars over 35 years and constructing a hybrid lunatic car.

 


the 'Net-We-had' at the Etihad....again

One Piece at a Time by Johnny Cash is probably what you’re thinking of PV.

Management who exploit their workers, tend to get some kick-back.
I recall 2 company Directors paying a site visit to Cardiff,....coincidentally on a rugby final day.
During school holidays, they were 'working from home'.

The most exploiting Director was told to empty his desk not long after I left. This was a guy who took the day off to get Live8 tickets (which kind of made me respect him a bit),....then he left the gig early, before Pink Floyd came on,...which made my hatred of him that much more intense

Thought this was going to be a another thread about Benteke.
