Fire & Rescue Service

VERY IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ALL OUR STAFF
Thrift Company Policy: Effective from April 2006

Dress Code
It is advised that you come to work dressed according to your salary. If we see you wearing Prada shoes and carrying a Gucci bag, we assume you are doing well financially and therefore do not need raise. If you dress poorly, you need to learn to manage your money better, so that you buy nicer clothes, and therefore you do not need a raise. If you dress just right, you are right where you need to be and therefore you do not need a raise.
Sick Days
We will no longer accept a doctors statement as proof of sickness. If you are able to go to the doctor, you are able to come to work.
Annual Leave Days
Each employee will receive 104Annual Leave days a year. They are
called Saturday & Sunday.
Bereavement Leave
This is no excuse for missing work. There is nothing you can do for dead friends, relatives or co-workers. Every effort should be made to have non-employees attend to the arrangements. In rare cases where employee involvement is necessary, the funeral should be scheduled in the late afternoon. We will be glad to allow you to work through your lunch hour and subsequently leave one hour early.
Toilet Use
Entirely too much time is being spent in the toilet. There is now a strict three-minute time limit in the stalls. At the end of three minutes, an alarm will sound, the toilet paper roll will retract, the stall door will open, and a picture will be taken. After your second offence, your picture will be posted on the company bulletin board under the Chronic offenders category. Anyone caught smiling in the picture will be sanctioned under the company's mental health policy.
Lunch Break
Skinny people get 30 minutes for lunch, as they need to eat more, so that they can look healthy. Normal size people get 15 minutes for lunch to get a balanced meal to maintain their average figure. Chubby people get 5 minutes for lunch, because that's all the time needed to drink a Slim-Fast.

Thank you for your loyalty to our company. We are here to provide a positive employment experience. Therefore, all questions, comments, concerns, complaints, frustrations, irritations, aggravations, insinuations, allegations, accusations, contemplation's, consternation and input should be directed elsewhere.

With the Bush administration and his friends as appointees in political position's that only help them and other friends make bundles of money now and in the long term (big business)! It is proven day in and day out that the people of America are getting the short end of the stick. Union's and wages are going out the door and there does not seem to be any stopping it! People of America have to wake up and stop the selling of their country! If you don't stop them (his political appointees) you will not have law's that protect the workers!

I think maybe with a good investigative journalist. What about you? The more research I do, the more it points to very suspicious activity within our government regarding the events leading up to the attack, the attack itself, and the events after the attack.

Im really peeved at the fact the harder I work and the more I earn, the more I get taxed and feel "penalised" for contributing 25% of my wage to the government, when there are several (alot more but you get the jist) people whom I personally know have never done a days work and are miles better off than me, I live in the southwest and earn way above the average wage but cant afford a mortgage or a car for that matter, when people I know who are on the doll get help with paying for driving lessons very nice accomadtion and countless amounts of grants and such, the latest coment to get to me was come and see my new place it'll ONLY cost £40 in a taxi, I wish i had £40 to waste on Taxi fair like my unemployed friend does. Surley those of us that work hard should be rewarded and the unemployed should be penalised for NOT contributing? I would like to know what you all think about this?
