asitis Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 If you were to have a league of bullshitters in Government or CS Roles, who would appear where ?

There's not much you can do in a year and I wonder if this is designed as a nice little earner for a mate at a loose end. More likely written with somebody in mind who they will then shoe in until they reach a golden pensionable age - at our expense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJR Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 As someone that was in at the start of the e gaming "revolution" and has the worthless shares to prove it that could tempt me.However the job advert says nothing of the sort.Perhaps if certain Police Officers worked until they were 67 and paid the 40% of earnings that would pay for an early pension I might agree.The essential fact is that this Island is paying the massive outgoings for people that were unemployable elsewhere in the dim and distant.
