Vulcan B2   10 #6 Posted August 16, 2011 And breathe! Can't you fix it yourself?  Why should the OP fix it herself?

You wouldn't have a dog and bark yourself would you??  I have had similar problems with Kier, although I find the lads actually on the tools are great, there are way too many pencil pushers higher up that couldn't organise themselves out of a paper bag.

Korl101 Â Â 10 #7 Posted August 16, 2011 I have a friend who told me a Kier story. One of his relatives received a visit from Kier to paint a communal wall.

gina2007 Â Â 10 #10 Posted August 16, 2011 Not an hourly rate though... get paid per job And keep chasing it up, ring every day, twice a day if you need too - they'll sort it, trust me. Oh and they have won the contract til 2014 so dont count on them going (and even when they do, the ''new'' company just hires the old staff) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
