Yes, I man the door at mothercare, thats why I called myself 'IT_Guy'
I saw many people in the Army doing nothing but moaning about the pay/accommodation/senior ranks/promotion prospects/add suitable whinge here, I'm sure the same things are said now as they where when I was in 7 years ago, if you don't like it - leave.
If your not happy with your pay or conditions have the balls to tell them to shove it, get a better job.
Or are you worried you may not find the grass quite as green on the other side?
Still nothing about why I am a coward IT Guy just because we moan about pay etc does this make me a coward. Are guys who moan about forces conditions cowards as well.
I see people do brave things every day and get no recognition, get back on Mothercare door and chuck they kids out its all your good for
I have now spent my first day ever on strike. there were many ex forces who are now prison officer with me. Do you think the public support this action????????
I'm certainly not behind this! Prison officers get a bloody good pay in comparison to other 'uniformed services'. I have an ex-squaddie friend just joined, she's starting on just under £18k and in a couple of years will be on approx £29k , performance granting. If she was still in green she'd have to put a hell of a lot longer in, and would have more chance of being placed in 'danger' than most POs, to get that money. Not only are POs IMHO whinging for nothing, it's usually the Police or the Army who end up picking up their slack. So there'll be no support for your strike, or any future ones, from this underpaid person.
Perhaps if the government spent a little less on providing cons with all the comforts of home and channeled the money into paying the POs a better salary we,d see happier POs and fewre re-offenders.
