That’s because “staff” suggests the workers there are on a contract, are on the books and are employed

Most will be part time, cash in hand invisible workers

colleague,team , crap lines. also, worked on the new police hq in st. asaph. it ain't got a cell block anymore. it has a "custody suite" FFS. as if that's a 5 * hotel for criminals.

I am currently gazing through my "environment awareness panel" (window) at 2 technical engineers removing the cover of a "personnel access chamber" (manhole)

I also hate those plastic packages that tools and suchlike are packed in that you can't open without a tool...usually a tool like the one in the packet...and if you attempt to slice it open neatly with a Stanley knife, well...you know what happens...

They are kind of a 'child proof' system. They are checking if you are responsible enough to have the tool.
I find poring petrol over the packaging and setting it alight will remove the packaging quite quickly.....

Ask Tel. I’m sure he could open the package, discretely remove the item inside and replace on the shelf without anyone knowing.

downlighters that tell you the cut-out hole is xx mm then when you carefully cut to that size, the fitting drops straight through the hole.
