A few years ago I was on a call out rota at the firm that I worked for and sometimes I could sense one was coming.
By the time it got round to 11.45 nothing had come in; yet I still had that call-out feeling. looking for something to keep me awake I noticed the old Bruce Lee film "Enter The Dragon" was staring on TV so I decided to watch it.
End of part one arrives and I'm still waiting....5 mins into part 2 and sure enough the phone rings "waters coming through a ceiling"!!
I arrived at the house 1/2hr or so later only to find the customer was also watching "Enter The Dragon" on their TV !!
Apparently during the interlude instead of making a "cup of tea" for himself he decides to fix those loose floorboards nailing a central heating pipe in the process!!
Every time I now see "Enter The Dragon" advertised I always think back to this moment in time.
What irony eh!

I used to hate that 'on call' duty when i worked for a firm, I don't mind it now cos its my choice but when i worked for a compny they had a call centre and they said where it is and when you go, I had a call one night at 1.30 in the morning I pulled the plug on the phone, when i got in work in the morning i was pulled into the office and had to explain why i did't take the call, I said " what time was the call" the boss said " at 1.30" I said " well i'd be asleep, how can i answer if I'm asleep" He was't amused and gave me a written warning, I left shortly after, shower of twats, Servowarm was the company,  |

I wrote a poem and stuck it on the noticeboard,
Its easy to be pleasant when the sun is shining bright
and the worlds's full of life and beauty
but a mans worthwhile if he can smile
when he's on a call out duty,
I got another written warning for that
its no fun working for companys, smiley-sad056 nay

The other Sunday you may remember I had a call out to a restaurant at 5.30 and the problem was the syphon had gone in the toilet for the disabled.
So I set about the task and had to cut the bolts off to remove the cistern and I replaced the syphon and doughnut washer also the close coupled kit, run and tested all fine.I sent them an invoice for £180 and they questioned it briefly until they got told straight. boxer
The cheeky twats have bottles of wine that are £200 a pop. kick-in-the-balls
