Default Re: What is the world coming to?

What a sad world when someone only sees the five minutes of fun and says "how dare they blah blah blah blah" I bet the same idiot would be glad if one of those guys turned up to help out at an incident they were involved in.

And as a manager of a very successful, profitable, Team I know my guys nick a bit of time for school sports, buy the wife's Xmas pressie etc, and quite frankly I don't mind in the least. They hit the numbers, respond out of hours, behave professionally when called on, work away from home if needs be. And on occasion I tell them to go and have a bit of fun, "I'll field your calls, you go and play golf, or whatever. Take your wife out for a meal, on me."

Oh my God, they might be five minutes late for a shout... and they might actually be five minutes closer - good job they were sledging so close to the incident.

But they must behave in a professional manner. As long as they do when called on just what is the problem here.
