I honestly think that a few in here would not last 5 minutes working with a gang of brickies or ground workers, no sense of humour and take themselves all to seriously.
Don't look much like a bundle of laughs to me :lol

Yeah but that's from round where you live, everyone is like that around there.
Where I live, and, where I worked brickies are paid for what they do, its the nature of self employment and price work, if you don't do the biz there is no dosh at the end of the week, we are not all safe workers that get paid even if we hang about all day with our finger up our nose.
Of course I am not insinuating that you do, but is that boggy on the tip of your finger? :lol

It's because everyone who smokes has to leave the site in order to do so. Usually by just a couple of feet or so. It's pretty much the rule wherever you work now in all industries.
