Oh No! Not Another BiB Bash Story!
Discussion
Perusing the paper last night - came across this gem in "Mail"...
Ben Taylor reports that Bobbies are to be offered extra £200 ... for turning up to work!
Since our BiBs and talivan traitors are so stressed out taking photos of "innocent Joes" and eating bags of doughnuts (hehe: - must be so boring!) - the powers that be in one London borough are offering BiBs and civvies bonus of £50 for not throwing sicky for at least three months. If they manage to keep turning up for further 9 months - they get another £150!
The stats say public sector workers take 17 days sick per year - compared with average of 7 in private sector.
The Met is not first to introduce this - West Mids get gift vouchers to spend at high street shops is they put in 12 months without a sicky.
80% of the sickies thrown are not certified by doctor (but then again - who manages to get past the Rottweiler at GP receptions?
)
Police also have their own on-line auction to sell stolen property. Unclaimed items are placed on this auction after three months. (Nice little earner) But - in fairness - they do say that if my Shy cousin recognises her tractor - it will be withdrawn for sale and returned to her

I have never met my Chief Superintendent. 
Maybe I should ask him for a £200 cheque for every year without sickness....
I must interject slightly here in relation to the soapbox coppers are lazy bastards because they all have 17 days sickness per year......Injuries are counted as time off....Broken nose sir, oh yes, that's a week sickness....
How many broken noses do you get in a call centre...
And for all the lazy sickie throwing bstards.
Get back to work you malingering bastards and stop giving us a bad name.
ahhh that's better..

So they are for others.
Warehouseman breaks his foot when stuff falls off shelf onto it...
Clerk injures herself by colliding with filing cabinet...
Nurse strains back assisting in lifting a patient (you tried moving a more or less dead weight...)
Medical staff catch lurgy off patient - well they are ill when we see them .....
A&E staff end up as their own casualties .... happens all the time according to my mate down there ....
Nasty fact of life that injuries - however obtained - whether at work or at play - count as Sick Leave.
Just unfortunate that some professions are more prone than others .... the BiBs in this family are always reminding us of this.
(Wildy has three cousins - UK side of her family - they are brothers based Durham, London and Manchester and I have one cousin in Canada who is Mounty)

I think i read somewhere that people who work shifts take far far more time off work because it completely screws up the bodyclock, metabolism etc. Resistance levels are massively lowered and sickness occurs more often.....
Bodies get used to it.
Human body is still a mystery I was never ill back in the good old days of 125 hour junior doc weeks - the patients were!
and once took wildy on a hot date - only I fell face first in a plate of oysters - Wildy did not get a night of furrball passion - and she has made me pay ever since!robocop said:
Shift certainly messes up your body clock themoss! 
After 12 years, I should know!
Look at me now!, should be tucked up in bed but am wide awake on the comp.....
You and me both. On shift at 3am to deliver milk to Tescos, but could not sleep. Hate first shift of nights.
