I've had jobs since driving buses for every firm in London... Until they kick me out. They all play lip service to H&S.
My late wife Sue and I moved around the country, mostly because I wanted to pick up my railway career. I couldn't even get a job sweeping the toilet floors. I'd been cancelled for ever. Ya see whistle blowers always pay the heaviest prices.
