I think it goes back to years ago when Council workers were seen as geeks and stuffy. It is so not like that any more and Council bosses should be addressing those that cause trouble for us like minded people who enjoy life. I want to enjoy going to work, I spend enough time there, I think it is my right. Three cheers for the Council workers: Hip Hip Hooray!!!! |

Maybe as condition of getting job council workers have to get zapped by 'sense of humour removal machine'. Obviously some manage to avoid this like your dad for instance. |

The children already call me GRANDMA SUE. As someone has already said 3 cheers for all council staff that have got a great sense of humour and keep laughing even though people complain. Sue |

Lisa, he is so funny. He has put posters all over the office saying, 'This is a laugh free zone'. He's not one to let things lie my Dad he's a wind up I'm afraid. Whoever complained is going to wish they hadn't very soon!! Natalia x |
