    If anyone hears of a deli open please let me know asap :D

    Just knock on a few neighbours doors and you'll find someone who's bought 8 loaves of bread and half a fruit & veg department.

    Eistech have always treated their employees really bad, what more would you expect of such a company. I hope no one working there gets hurt going home.

    Im worried about the eistex employees that stand around outside smoking and throwing their fag ends on the ground, they could get frost bite

    Any chance I'll get a breakfast roll in the morning in town?

    Probably not. They have a notorious name all over the country as an absolute scumbag of an employer and the way they treat their staff is appalling, from denying holidays to expecting people to work unpaid overtime etc etc.

    If any of them had an ounce of common sense they would tell then to fcuk off if asked to work today and/or tomorrow.

    A lot of places are planning on reopening tomorrow around 1 - 3pm but I'd say that will change tonight/early tomorrow morn, places will be lethal tomorrow.

    I think Friday should be considered a no drive day unless told otherwise by people better trusted than employers!

    The blanket of snow will cover the beautiful collage of chewing gum stuck to the ground that their employees have created outside the building from spitting it from their gobs as they go to work

    Not on the dot! :D Though yes it is quite quiet out there wind wise. Presumably it'll pickup, I was hopeing we'd get this blizzard bit over and done ASAP I have to go the back of beyond (Co Limerick) on Sunday at 8 AM and was hoping we'd be in milder air well before then but I'm starting to have my doubts.
