I just had my eyes closed for a loooong time! That's a belter of a story - and defence. "I wasn't sleeping, I just had my eyes closed for a long time after self medicating my wives anti depressants and couldn't hear the phone because I had my ear phones in listening to music - so how can you sack me?" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottsdad Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Reminds me of a civilian who worked for the police with my dad about 20 years ago. His job was to look after the prisoners. Every 15 minutes, check on them in their cells. Bring them food, drinks and so on. One Inspector went down and chatted with him. After about 15 minutes the Inspector asked if he was going to check on the prisoners. "Aye, in a minute". The Inspector left, then came back a minute later and there the guy was, still sitting in the same position reading his newspaper. Long story short, they checked the CCTV and found that this guy hardly ever checked on them. Shift after shift, he sat reading his paper. He got sacked, too. Didn't put up any kind of defence though, he was just a lazy fucker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can only presume this is an elaborate ruse to give him a bit of time to pump his bit on the side without his wife getting suspicious. That was my initial thought too. Say it’s 4.5hrs drive but add 30-40 mins for a decent stop each way. Why was he in the shop for 7 hours and who told the newspaper? I bought shirts in a shop the last twice I was across in Ireland with work this spring. Can’t say that I felt like calling the Irish Times, nor did my chat with the lady at the till go beyond friendly pleasantries. I’m going over to Dobbies later; I’ll ask folk at the door where they live, in case I can get a scoop for the Stirling Observer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
