So you knock blokes and threaten to sue when they mention it
Nice
Obviously we can't please everyone and some people will (inevitably) see what they want to see and not focus on anything positive as they've made up their minds. Tis life.
But please consider, if the boot was on the other foot would you be so quick to jump to the defence? It seems you take another scaffolder's word as gospel when he himself is simply speculating on hearsay.
Please appreciate, that we want to protect our reputation - some times it's easy to forget that actions have consequences - if those consequences are detrimental and have a negative effect because of hearsay, then I feel we are well within our rights to defend ourselves. That said, it seems you've already made up your mind regardless of what I say here...
Despite all the positive we have just tried to espouse you have concentrated on the negative. Is that because you have a natural aversion to agencies and a bias towards other scaffolders?
I've worked on site with scaffolders, one of my best friend's is a scaffolder, I speak with scaffolders almost delay in the line of work I am in now. I know better than to judge one scaffolder (good or bad) as representative of all scaffolders. There are good blokes and bad blokes in all walks of life - tradesman, lawyers, shopkeepers... I don't want to go off on one but we would like to be treated fairly.
It takes different strokes and to judge all scaffolder's actions on one scaffolder's actions would be naive - as it would be when it comes to agencies.
We do not have a problem with any individuals, and the last thing we want to do is be the cause of animosity or the subject of animosity on here.
As I said before we welcome suggestions about how we can contribute to the community here rather than just - as seems to be a bug-bear - posting about work we have coming up. Many Thanks LNS Recruitment
