need for more special leave, page-34

I'm on a 9 day fortnight and i love it. I have loads of long services leave, over 100 sick days and about 4 weeks annual leave owing, thats after i finish my 3 weeks Xmas leave I am currently taking. Its the gravy train........

Funny thing happened at my work, they decided they were going to crack down on 'sickies' but word on the street has it that after running a check through all departments the worst offenders were the 'Human Resources Branch' themselves. I was told by a good source who works in HR that the investigation came to an ubrupt holt and was never heard of again.

On the floor our HR Branch is secretively known as the 'hospital' and the guys regularly bet on who will be away for the week.

Its the running joke.
