Exactly, I’m one of those millionaire!!!!! self employed builders, been loading out blocks in someone’s garden this afternoon, f*ck me I should have had armbands on. Told myself that I’d never work in the rain again, unfortunately I’d have been on bread & water if I’d stuck to that promise this last month. Good luck to the train drivers, why do people compare them to nurses as if it’s their fault? Ridiculous!!!!!
