Bloody agency electricians

[ARW]

We are pulled out at work and so using agency electricians.

If they turn up you have to sort the wheat from the chaff.

So we have two in Rotherham and one in Wakefield.

Rotherham needed another one so and an agency supplied one. A different agency to the one that supplied those three.

So today Wakefield man does not show up to work today but at least there were now three in Rotherham. Turned out Wakefield man was on two agency books and was now costing us £2pph more than when he worked in Wakefield.

My Hull agency electrician was a different kettle of fish. Turned up at

8am, had a site induction and when I asked him if he had any questions he asked

"Does it matter that I have no tools I left them in Switzerland"

So he was sent home. The mind boggles.

An apprentice agency electrician, perhaps?

The JTL actually supply some tools and a toolbag when they start college. It's not much, but it's more than the agency bloke had.

Is this an electrician failure, or an agency failure? I assume the guy told the agency he was tool-free.

[ARW]

Electrician failure at a guess. Just after a couple of days work and hoping the site was big enough to borrow tools.

Long trip to get them then, another victim of covid restrictions perhaps? Brian
