The ‘spare-men’ earned a paltry weekly wage of 9 shillings. Significant deductions were made for such items as the company uniform and rule book. New employees received no pay for the first six weeks of their employment. In addition, workers could be reported for petty infractions of the company’s strict code of conduct and so incur deductions on their already meagre wage. Given the conditions under which the tram workers laboured, Larkin described William Martin Murphy as ‘the most foul and vicious blackguard that ever polluted any country’.

I placed an order at one address, when had to move office I sent a Customer Service message to update the address, they pretty much immediately contacted me with instructions to be fair. After I input it they sent me a message querying if the address was correct, as their message form doesn't allow commas or spacing apparently. I replied by resending the address in numbered order i.e. 1. Office name 2. BUilding name 3. Area name. 4. Post code. Got the dispatch message today...address in order 4, 3, 1, 2....Errrmm

Apartment living, leaves little room for anyway to do but the most basic of maintenance and cleaning at the moment. My neighbour is probably sick of me being in the hallway cleaning the bike and doing the various things I'm okay at.
