 Lady customer: "I might have to take up window cleaning soon" 

"I've just been made redundant"
That's terrible I said I'm sorry to hear that.
"well they said I could go now and receive three years wages, so I thought why not?"

Great isn't it - working for the m.o.d.?

A customer of mine works for Bristol City Council.  He's meant to work full time, but - due to having to look after his elderly Mother - works from home.  He brags that he only does about two hours work a day, gets paid for full time, and has only had to physically go to work four times so far this year; and one of those times was for a social function.

If you ever want to be employed, I'd choose a public sector job over a private sector.
