Look everyone Its the "Rick never turned a spanner Statham" show ,based on a fictional world where everbody has all the time in the world to do every job to the enth degree , and people with zero experience on the tools, can tell everyone else where they are going wrong and earn a bundle doing it, oh yea and you simply must be in the good old NASC otherwise they won't be able to lord it up over us simple scaffs.
He used to be our group H & S manager at Palmers, his underdog was a bloke called Brian Petty, who is a realy decent bloke to be fair, (although the scaffs used to call him Petty Brian) Ricks alright and very knowledgeable its just I find it realy difficult to level with a bloke regarding safety and scaffolding when he hasn't done it for a living. Far better to have the respect of the lads if you've been where they have.
