Default Work Experence... ******* youths

Today we have two young 15 year old boys who are with my workshops for a week of work experance.

rant mode on...

1. they turn up wearing designer gear.
2. they mone about having to put on overall / coveralls, to stop them getting dirty.
3. they didn't have boots so had to get them some from the stores, but who had to sign for them... yes me.
4. they cannot work alone for the odvious reasons so they take two of my production bods away. So now my production is 1 bod...
5. One of them doesn't even want to join the Army or be a mechanic...FFS
5. Remember the're 15.... at Naafi break one says can we go for a fag. No I say your only 15, if you get cought then I'll get the bollocking from my peers, later when the teachers turn up to pick them up I ask if there allowed to smoke at school to which they reply....YES, as they'll just **** off to the bogs for 30 mins for a fag anyway if you don't let them.

What has this bloody countrys youth and schooling come too?

or maybe i'll just say

rant mode off... relax and breath.

Tossers. I've allus been mad for that sort of thing, really enjoyed my work experience, wasn't quite as interesting as military vee-hicles (building roadsweepers ) but was still interesting.
(Though I was allowed to smoke there!)

The fact that they were wearing designer gear shows them to be either chavs or poofters, either way not somebody who I'd expect to be a good spanner monkey lol
