    I wondered what the niche in the market was she was talking about - in her business you can buy your cake and eat it :D

    Is there anyone actually literally starving in Ireland??


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,949 ✭✭✭✭IvyTheTerrible


    Am I being unfair in thinking that a lot of these claims of "not being able to put food on the table" are exaggerated?

    (Also, if it's a really good business, how come it's doing so badly?)

    Why doesn't she scurry down to Lidl and join the rest of the rats?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,743 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    No Damo she didn't call in for that reason. Pull the other one Damo.

    Shes annoyed that she doesnt have a big franchise? There is no guarantee of making a fortune out of a business idea, get real woman.

    Ah stop with the crèche.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,730 ✭✭✭europa11


    "Starvation" "scurrrying rats at the use by counter" and now she's running out of credit....the fooond Damo, the foond!

    Was she in the Exaggeration business?

    NO. On another day you will be hearing about childhood obesity.

    Water proof clothes for kids is a great idea? Middle Class nonsense more like.

    This is a thinly veiled "aren't I great" call.

    Crèche manager ? Here comes a cheap plug.

    Along with the multitude of people who think they'll make a fortune from selling "cupcakes" that look like they've been iced with multicoloured dog****.

    "As a parent, and as I dare say, mother"??? Que?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 750 ✭✭✭Tisserand


    How could you run a creche with parents popping in and out all day

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,023 ✭✭✭Meathlass


    Is that a woman working in a creche who just told the kids to shut up so she can talk on the phone!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,743 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Jesus.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,743 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy

    There at quarter to 7, finish at 4 or 5. So she's there 24-7 ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,772 ✭✭✭sudzs


    I wonder how long before someone rings in to object to the idea of an open house creche where these other parents have access, without garda clearance, to their little darlings! :rolleyes:

    She had said that people were scurrying around Lidl like rats looking for cheap food.:eek:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,949 ✭✭✭✭IvyTheTerrible


    This one reminds me of the head of the Ayn Rand creche in the Simpsons!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,743 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    All the staff are human ?

    As opposed to the two that are cyborgs ?

    She claimed families were "scurrying like rats" around her local Tescos' "use-by" bargain shelf.

    Good job things are so hunky dory in her native Sweden :rolleyes:

    sending children to creches is expensive - why then do I hear that the carers are paid badly? If 20 kids are paying 150/200 a week, thats in excess of €3,000 - why then cant the staff be paid well? If you pay peanuts, you get monkeys

    Looks like Damien is getting all the shrill women callers


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,886 ✭✭✭✭Roger_007


    Do they teach the kids in the crèche how to scurry like rats? This is now an essential like skill!

    "I have children in my facility since they were babies".

    Well it is a crèche!
