were certainly not swanky city trader-types – just hairy arse engineers, well more polished arse engineers but you get the dirft. and theres no champagne and cocktails either, just London Pride!
were all contractors on a project by project merry-go-round and will all more than likely end up working with each other again at some point so you dont wanna get a reputation as a tightwad. shit sticks and can hold you back, any of these blokes could be a lead on the next one!
im suprised by the outcry tbh, like i said its one or two expensive days a year but the rest of the time someone else is paying! its a good system – if you like a beer anyway!
