thatās 100% correct
Irish -American sentimentality may be cheesy but by god are we good at it and does it serve us well
ive had first hand experience of it in the last 13 years embarking on semi conducter mergers.
all jokes aside tho, we had a situation here a few weeks ago where a pretty serious mover and shaker from the west coast paid us a visit, ok we do have the low corporate tax gig, but our nearest EMEA comperitor (a non EU state BTW) have ridiculous levels of government and overseas private funding
anyway, our pal walks in, does a killer presentation, outlines how our competitors in the far east are ahead in the game and we have missed the bus, there are layoffs and our output is been lowered based on poor yield, anyway , he finishes upā¦ next thing the GM here takes things off kilter and decides that for the craic of it they are going to show our esteemed friend his family tree,
Now, our colleague is a little taken aback as Paddy goes thru the motions waxing lyrical and the crowd cooing, anyway as it stands our main man is Irish and his ancestors are from kinsale, he is presented with a cork gaa jersey and a caman, banter ensues and heās one of usā¦ i can tell you right now that my colleagues accross the med woundnt even know where to begin with this,
we baffle the yanks with our bank holidays, short work days but when it comes down to it they love working with us, we doff the cap, say yes and of you go and it works
BREXIT, fuck that, the US is our main pal when it comes to FDI and the IDA are damn good at that as well

Did you miss Labanes Cameron wont resign promise?
It wasnāt a promise you clown, it was an opinion. Something you appear completely incapable of. Leave the discussion to the adults and stick to the emojis.
I wonder will you get a cringe or a for that now, or a story about a bike?
or a picture of his mutt?
Take a break from your self for 5 minutes, pal.
Proper adults. The ordinary half drunk rtc educated micks are seething not to have been included. They have been trying to position themselves as serious economic comentators the likes of @glasagusban and @Matty_Hislop
But Scotland is full of useless cunts. We are better.
thanks mate
I think brexit will be good for SRFC. Parents wont want to send talented footballers to a non eu country at 16 so they will go to the SRFC academy
Piketty is a twat
you,ve a lovely style of posting yourself tho mate
Id imagine youāve done very well for yourself
Youād a great post there a few years ago on Paddys day about drinking in the wetherspoons in Leeds and how it was hard to go home to see the parents getting old at home but we all have choices to make in life and you made yours
i read that as i was in work myself when the wife was 6 months pregnant and had thrown me out of the house , my father had cancer and i handnt called him in monthsā¦ i too had made choices thoā¦ i was disgusted with myself but i also made choices that day that bettered me
i still read that post at times pal, i saved it,
its not that its inspirational, it just grounds me some what and i thank your for it
And dont underestimate the benefit of taking them down to Ballybunion, Doonbeg, K Club, Kinsale etc and reminding them afterwards that these places are within 2 hours reach (for Limerick or Cork) every time they visit.
we need to get Alan Mannus back mate
they were some days, Alan Mannus, Mick O Neill and Gary Twigg, what a year that was
I agree
But he would be a hero of the anti austerity movement and has quit. The desperation of the Corbynists here and elsewhere, who have some strange Demigod view of Corbyn, to paint this as a āBlairiteā coup is beyond embarrassing at this stage. Piketty hasnāt moderated his views, nor have plenty of the left wing of the party who have gone against Corbyn.
Corbyn isnāt a leader and he is taking down the Labour Party.
I see a bit of Nige Farrage in you TASE. Keep banging the drum and eventually get to play a tune
biggest mistake ever not meeting oāneils demands
Fair play to the Scots did you see. Gerry or Martin over in brussal so @ChocolateMice ho
i was out there last friday v Cork

club needs a lift, there was no athmosphere there at all
Dessie Baker gave me a nod in the stand allright, that made my night
