AJI Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 I told one of my technicians to fold a piece of paper in on its self in half 8 times. He tried and tried and tried and about half an hour later I told him to get back to work! He didn't realise it was near impossible to do this task but after about half an hour he got the message.

Ewen Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Love silly stuff like this...

RedM Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 So, do you do a full day or work only a few hours for that money? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesmark Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 So, do you do a full day or work only a few hours for that money? Full day, but was on O/T when on that rate, normal rate is about £8.60PH, still better than some places that i have seen round here. how do you think i can afford to put my car right with all thats went wrong with it lol.
