Keep telling us there’s a recession coming. You’ll be right eventually. Stopped clocks and all that.
Recessions are inevitable and fairly predictable. The longest gap between recessions was 9 years (91 to 2000). We are 7 years into the current expansion (if you could call it that) so it’s getting long in the tooth.
Sterling has rallied the last two days amidst opinion polls showing Brexit is unlikely. Up to 1.30 from a low of 1.23 just 5 weeks ago. 
Now just keep moving north to 1.35 or thereabouts please. To think it hit 1.44 last summer.

I’d say these transdev shop stewards are giving the senior SIPTU guys a pain in the hole.
Capitalism wouldn’t spit on Unions mate.
Wrong thread.
Us capitalist pigs hate the unions

I’m not fond of them either mate, bearded bloodsucking cunts.
60k a year to push a button on a tram, they’d want to fuck off out of it.
You could train a monkey to operate them. The work they do is worth no more than 23k pa.
They could probably be run remotely
Since it’s Dublin I’d say 35k max but no more then that.
They could be replaced in the morning…it’s unskilled in fairness.
They can.
They probably will be eventually.

The lads doing security on the red line should be on better grade.

Its a minimum wage +10% role and that’s generous.
I’d give them 35k in case one of them loses the plot and doesn’t press the stop button and kills a load of innocent people out of bitterness.
But they can fuck off with there 60k.
If there was work in the bed he’d sleep on the ground

@Julio_Geordio do I recall you commenting on or doing a quick calc one time on whether or not a property was a good investment based on price v rental yield? Say the house is 145k and could be rented out with ease, for 800 a month at least in today’s value. Does that stack up as a good or bad thing or you don’t know?
The tax kills you on investment property. Whats the repayments ?
