    Most of what you’ve said is right but I think there are other factors. Brexit and its economic impact being one of them. Covid on top of that. They have made things hard economically. Have they made the right decisions from it ? Been ballsy enough? No which is where you’re right. I voted Labour last time because of the voting system and circumstance in the ward I lived then. I honest struggle to pick, but know who not to pick.

    And be paid less in the process? No I do not work public sector. I was the only man on the job, got all work done in the required timescale. Client very satisfied, I was very happy with the remuneration I received. Impossible to do the job any quicker. And I resent the implication that it could have been.

    I would say it's normally the opposite. 0% rise for no imp or a bigger payrise for prod improvements, that's how it worked in the companies i worked at.

    You have no idea what the job I was doing is, and it could not have been done any quicker without employing more men. Employing more men costs more money which therefore means less productivity. My job can not be done by a machine I am a tradesman. Once again I resent the implication that the job could be done any quicker. As I am paid by the hour I would be robbing the client. I did the job in the required timescale and paid a lot of tax in the process to keep pensioners in the manner to which they have become accustomed.

    so you are saying there is no new tools on the market that would make you job quicker and easier.
    Two of my brothers work in the building trade and every now and then get new better tools or find a way of doing the job quicker. i showed them some ways like
    Break down how you do a task into small chunks, is there any steps you duplicate or that could be removed etc.

    The consensus of experts were right though but perhaps you prefer a racist grifter as your expert?:)

    caught lying and being a racist again, he seems a lovely fella. He is like Trump to some as he can do nothing wrong and has created a cult with his fanboys.

    Farage's racism denials are dishonest, says ex-classmate https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cx2dny3r3vyo

    the liberals chucked their morals for some silver and fancy job titles. Davy was one of the main culprits

    No. I have been doing my job the way I was trained to do it. I have been doing my job for 40 years, do you not realise how condescending you are by telling me I am not doing it correctly. What an arrogant man you are. No wonder you took early retirement I bet staff despised you. By the way, I am not a schoolteacher but do you realise that your punctuation, spelling and grammar are atrocious. Could you not go on a basic English language course to improve it.:emoticon-0102-bigsm ..

    Mate I am not trying to be arrogant, improvements are about using you the expert and asking you to look outside the box most times it something a simple change that you look straight past can make a big difference to your job.

    My experience of over 40 years in the trade has taught me all the tricks I need to know. You cannot buy experience.

    Yes experience is the most important but improvements can help you do your job quicker, I was watching a u tube video from an electrician, got different bags for different tasks ,first fix, second fix, testing etc. He saves loads of time sorting tools out needed for task rather than carrying a big heavy box with all his tools. Keeps his van tidy with all tools in specific places on on hand immediately.
