Worked with a Moari lad in Melbourne doing scaffolding, lets just say that we were higher than the scaffold ever got to.

During the 70's when I was doing my apprenticeship in Altrincham, we had a lad who constantly on all kinds of stuff, and we hated working with him because he had become so volatile inside himself, and would pick arguments for the sake of it, throw hammers ect. a real little charmer, turns out he use to go these all night dance/rave??? things in Wigan, and use to take stuff to keep him going 24hr, Mangement came down hard on him and said get yourself clean up or your are out, I think he got himself clean by the time I left the firm to go and live in Australia in 1980.......

I knew a self-employed gardener who from memory was on just about everything; he'd recount all his hallucinations from LSD, some of which sounded like a David Cronenberg film.

an ex-girlfriend of mine who I met at work was a pothead, and her ex-boyfriend a coke dealer who topped himself with an O/D after she cheated on him with his best friend (she was very young at that time, she wasn't a bad girl - quite the opposite in fact).

despite so many people smoking pot in the US (it's like having a pint down the pub here, whereas our drinking habits in the UK scare the piss out of most Americans) and my exposure to the culture, I've never understood people who put rubbish into themselves to get high - and I'm talking stuff like LSD, coke, smack, speed, crack.

the 'free stuff' is always the best, and there's plenty of that walking around, and enough for everyone - unless you're male and live in China or India apparently ;o)

Sacked a lad a few years ago....
Worked at a place in Wythenshawe and he would come on his motorbike to work and disappear at lunch time (he lived locally) and return.
One day the cops nicked him sat on his bike across the road from the work place and found he had drugs on him.
Apparently the dibble drove past the depot the day before and suspected him of having a spliff but were after bigger fish that day so drove on.....
So drove past the following day figuring (as he had hi viz vest on and work clothes) that he may be there the following day, which he was!
Turns out he had no licence, tax or insurance for his bike too!
I had to suspend him and then sack him after a disciplinary hearing.
He kept going on about ''it's my lunch time, I can do what I want''.
I said, ''you cannot turn up for work under the influence of alcohol or drugs, it is in your work contract and was detailed in your induction'.


What have I done to my post to make it look like I have quoted a quote ?? - people will think I am on something.

A similar story to this one. Three "Mickey" Agency workers turned up one night and stuff immediately started to go missing. I called the Fascists in ( Security) had them searched and they had Weed and something else - a powder in a Baccy pouch ???.

The Police then attended and took them away.
And showed him the door.

I used to work on Fountain Street with a load of surveyors earning 6 figure bonuses. They would shovel coke up their hooters day and night. Some of the arguments over fuck all were brilliant, one guy said he quite liked Michael Buble and one of the others went ballistic. The second guy must have lost a client or something, but all you could hear was "I HATE MICHAEL BUBLE! MICHAEL BUBLE IS FUCKING SHIT, I DON'T CARE, FUCKING FIRE ME!" Just say no kids.

I wonder if its the same bunch that I know who I used to be contracted out to. Wouldn't put it past them at all. lol.

Past or present

Working on building sites around Manchester during the nineties, it seemed like every fucker was on one thing or another/or beer.......lots of beer'

I know a bloke who has cans for breakfast, is in the pub at 12 and then goes to work at 6pm for 12 hours. He drives a stacker truck. He has done this every day since i've known him.

I always go to work straight as a dye cos there's too many sharp things or fast, spinning things for me to maim meself on if slightly wobbly. I do have a joint the minute i've finished though.
