I thought that civil servants were recession proof!
I guess the safest jobs right now are teachers

People who work in local government are NOT civil servants!

Our local county council spent 80K on knitting lessons for staff to reduce stress and absence levels!!!

I can't say the staff in my local Woolies ever seemed to break a sweat or pop a smile, but I didn't think 'Yeah, **** ya' when they lost their jobs. Must be me, 'eh

Some work. Our library services are good.

But my next door neighbour spent 12 years "on the sick", after Avon CC was split in '96. He suffered from stress, but couldn't be arsed to find a stress-free poor paying job. Now he's on a full pension, off ski-ing. He is just an idle tosser who sucks money from the rest of us.

It winds me up so much.
