Admin Vista Posted March 6, 2012 Admin Report Posted March 6, 2012 That's a disgrace and the perpetrators should be flayed with the birch, but at least you're paid to do it. I also have to clean up litter like that regularly (in my own time and for free). Partly because we suffer from the same mindless apes as you do, but the fact that there are no litter bins in any of the public areas is at least contributory. Something else the council refuses to provide (you can add road maintenance / sweeping, drains clearance, Grit bins and most other things that people can normally expect to be provided by their local authority to the list of services we don't get) Seriously, I've been here nearly 10 years and it took us about 3 years to get on the local bus route, which was withdrawn again soon after before being reinstated after numerous complaints. Another couple of years to get a post box. The school that was supposed to be built the council allowed the developers to renege on and build more "affordable housing" and Housing association properties instead. Whilst I appreciate that the bus service and post box are not council provided they are a sign of the indifference our area is treated with. Oh and it's nothing to do with Tory cut backs, I know it's easy to blame a councils failings on cut backs but these problems were here long before the Tories were.
GJUK Posted March 6, 2012 Report Posted March 6, 2012 This is a daily job for me I have to clean this repair it paint it .refit the matting in the grass 25 panels .its five grands worth of kit ,Totalled by mindless assholes Will i leave it? Why have you installed a 5k fruit bowl in a park on rubber matting? Why not install some CCTV and stop it from happening again? I agree with the 'total mindless assholes comment' though.
Admin Vista Posted March 6, 2012 Admin Report Posted March 6, 2012 at £5k fruit bowl but to be honest, I can't tell what it's meant to be either
escamino Posted March 6, 2012 Report Posted March 6, 2012 Sadly in a lot of cases thats true .Especially with the Tories cut backs and redundancies . Maybe this thread could be split .Title one thread Council scum ? I get this daily to my face and have thick skin .Its a job £25k + OT for welding fabricating inspecting repairing replacing kit .And i have to clean dog shit litter etc . Someones got to do it or being the dirty cu.ts we are Uk would be infested with more than imigrants Wouldn't be cut backs if Labour hadn't spent the money on services the tax payer can't use.

Would you like to be the guy watching kids on the CCTV ? Its a great piece of kit it spins and goes up and down .£5k include fitting and matta .Do you know about surfacing then ??? This is the better type easier to replace etc As for your question Talk to the officious baffoons in the office for an answer to that....

You just seem hell bent on a row vista .lol the latest round of cut back WILL make it worse ...beleive me
Admin Vista Posted March 6, 2012 Admin Report Posted March 6, 2012 A row with you? No, not at all. What would be the point in that? I just want you to consider my point of view, you don't have to agree with it. Re the kids ride, what is it though? Do the kids sit in it or what?

You're obviously working hard today posting photos of what you should be doing during your 'working' day. Saving everyone money yayyy.
SteveL Posted March 6, 2012 Report Posted March 6, 2012 Yawn .Start at six posted in my break while waiting for paint to dry and i work flexi hours 37 any day of the week maybe you should apply for the cctv job you seem to be a good observer Vista its a spinner ,The kids get in it goes fast lol they love it
dave waudby Posted March 9, 2012 Report Posted March 9, 2012 its not a 5k fruit bowl, its for kids to sit and and it spins round, we have one in our local park as for the man in harogate with the scrap cars, i think its absolutally discracefull that they have sent him to jail for keeping scrap cars yeah maybe its a eyesore for local people, but sending him to jail, talk about wasting tax payers money or council tax, im not 100% sure where the money comes from to keep prisoners in jail, but i do know it cost alot just to keep one person in jail, plus i thought the jails were supposed to be too full, what a load of the round ones who ever made the decisions, getting them towed away and crushed would cost alot less than court appearances and prison sentances. anyway personally i say there his cars he can keep them do what the fook he likes with them.
SteveL Posted March 9, 2012 Report Posted March 9, 2012 Jail? thats rediculous ! I searched for him to see if i could snag a car seems like hes been prosecuted a few times over the years . Some A hole at the council or a ward councillor has it in for the poor guy
Admin Vista Posted March 9, 2012 Admin Report Posted March 9, 2012 It says he's been remanded in custody until sentencing on March 23rd rather than he's been jailed. Though the net outcome is the same as far as he's concerned. If he's been prosecuted for it multiple times before though and keeps re-offending then what other option is there?
dave waudby Posted March 9, 2012 Report Posted March 9, 2012 remanded in custody is "in jail" still costs the same to keep him there, wether its remand or sentanced. imo its the wrong way to approach it, especially since the jails are packed and the cost of it. and he may have other mental problems such as hoarding, if hes done it before and is still doing it then what good is jail doing. none what so ever.
