What time did you ring?

Working in this 'game' it does get infuriating the times people ring thinking all we do is sit abouts 24/7 drinking tea awaiting your call, seriously, sites are tpically on a bare minimum, or less, staffing level already plus all the other stuff we have to do, you know, ground work, bog cleaning, bog unblocking, how difficult is it to flush a loo, or keep YOUR darling childeren from stuffing all the bog roll down it:)
Then there's the my pegs wont go in, you tell people till your blue in the face rock pegs required, do they listen, do they hell. Tripped electric, 'sir, your kettle, domestic 3kw, obviously has issues, it's all burnt round the connector', no it's not it's fine :oops: What about, mymheater doesn't work, water doesn't work, tv doesn't work so can we borrow a dvd, folks you wouldn't believe some of what we deal with, mind you it's still way more fun than a proper job:)

That said, if you've left a message, even at 10 bloody PM, we still politely call back the following morning.
