Janitor Ed

Just finished my first week as the "site supervisor" of a primary school.

I work for a large building and property management company based in the north of England. They built several schools through PFI's and sort of rent them back to the local education authorities.

The school is 7 years old but only looks 1 year old, the head moans that a large part of her budget gets eaten up by the arrangement, but all she has to do is look at equivalent schools owned and maintained by local education authorities and she'll see that the building she has is far superior in design, build and upkeep.

It's the early starts that will get to me if anything does. I work a split shift 07:30 - 11:30 then 14:30 - 18:00. That means up at 06:30 and out at 07:00.
That's quite a shock after the last two and a bit years of getting up at the crack of midday and doing whatever the hell I fancied.

Maybe I'll win the lotto and can retire again.

A man can dream....

One last thing err I go.


DEATH TO JEDWARD!!!

oh alright, just send them back to Ireland after banging their heads together.

Hi there matey, I have been rubbish and catching up with the world of Ed recently but good to here your well... and working?!

Have you chosen a job where you can continue the matlow tradition of grumbling behaviour but this time grumbling about kids and shouting KEEP OFF THE GRASS and KIDS TODAY... etc?

Well I hope the job gives you a newly found sense of drive and motivation.

All the best fella
