Not a good look. I wonder did he go because this was going to come to light?

I don't know if his show runs all year round, but assuming it does.. then 104 shows per year. Equalling 2355 per week, or 589 per hour
Marion was on more money for less hours.
Fair play to you and the other posters who were trying to highlight the negative influence this agent was having in our national broadcaster for so long including abusing taxpayers money. I had never heard of him but it sounds like he had built a cosy cartel in an RTE with governance standards Haughey/Bertie would be proud of. You earned a sense of satisfaction at being finally proven correct. Never mind the blinkered tip-the-cap begrudgers.
About 40
I worked out his hourly rate and it's about €1560 ph
I'm not sure of the relevance of that, but that's illegal, too
That might be his pay breakdown but as regards airtime I'd imagine he works akin to the school calendar, ie a week or two off at all holidays, (Xmas, Easter etc) a month to 6 weeks off in summer and plenty of weeks off sprinkled throughout the year. Pat Kennys schedule basically. If your commanding 250k pa in RTE, you have lots of holidays
Ha I can't seem him wanting to seriously discuss salaries at RTE so. Maybe they should all be put on leave for editorial reasons
They're so transparent, it's actually hilarious.
And the kicker is, when he's off they have the Newry one O'Donnell on as a fill in, so more earnings for NK
And in BOC's case, it's his second job. Nice work if you can get it, I guess...
Just reading something earlier that reminded me of what other workers were going through while Tubridy and or his agent were pushing for him to get the extra money.
It's slightly surreal how out of the of touch they were, not to mention greedy beyond belief.
Do you think CAB will need a garda escort when the dawn raid happens in the morning?
That's what I don't get, why are rte not creating talent and promoting them etc to do this kind of stuff. Very disappointed in no one living in Ireland being able to do the late late for example.
Is there anyone on the big shows who are employed by rte.
I wonder who did it?
Tubridy is not a direct employee of RTE though, in the sense that the education correspondent Emma O ' Kelly is. She has a permanent, pensionable position. Tubs is an outside contractor, as they are called. There are stars and there are serfs in all forms of employment. It's odd that these protestors only began marching around Montrose once these revelations emerged and not even once previously despite their long standing grievances regarding pay, conditions and the poor general "culture" that some claim exists at the station.
Tubs spotted in Sweeneys Bar, Claddaduff, Connemara yesterday.
To hell or to Connaught
Lol, next stop NYC
I wonder did he use his barter account to buy the pint
You'll find they did speak out before, it's been linked to at least twice if you care to look through the thread. I posted it and so did @AndrewJRenko.
Pint? They have a special 600ml "pint" glass behind the counter for when he visits.
He's never noticed though.
I guess the sarcasm wasn't thick enough.
Evidence of the same please.
They only work with RTE, so they are RTE stars.
An agent doing his job.
Nothing to see here.
Thats like saying it is odd that more women started speaking out after a high profile case of sexual assault was brought against Weinstein.
Whistleblowers giving others in the group confidence to voice their own concerns has been a thing since men lived in caves.
So RT/NK asks for a wage increase (nothing wrong here)
RTE decide to do it an underhanded way (RTE in the wrong)
RTE failed to disclose earnings (RTE in the wrong)
Sorry whats your point again?
if tubridy did launch a podcast - he would soon realise he is not mr popular and is in fact widely disliked/seen as a pariah in this country
his core fans seem to be easily fooled, naive old biddies who have been taken in by his well spoken “young fogey” bs - and gullible people with a range of borderline mental health issues.
Are you going to ignore all the times this was already explained to you and just repeat your disingenuous dismissals all over again?
There is a word for that.
Evidence of the same
With so many repeats you've gotta work for RTE.
