My boss was actually peeved that none of Englands group stage matches are during works time (7.30 - 4pm)

 

i got a telly in so the lads can watch hollyoaks

last time around when i was at NMUK building the cars they actually stopped the factory to let people watch the games, but you had to work overtime to build the cars that never got built, which is a pretty huge thing to do IMO for the size of the place, this all went off a majority vote

there were 9 people in our team of 20 that did not want to watch, but we were forced to down tools, so we played cards in the rest area while every body else went up to the canteen for the huge screens.

what made it all the more sweeter was when england got knocked out and thousands of unhappy faces came back down, and then had to do an extra hours overtime for free

it did not help when they were 9 people on our team shouting out "YOU NOT LAUGHING ANYMORE!" in true, completely "moron football supporter" fashion

the "devastated massive" hatted our jolly antics so badly they complained to our supervisor

 

Work for the NHS where NOTHING stops the activity - ie people will be ill no matter what's on the telly or what day of the year it is. So if you don't accept that it's no use coming into the job! We can book a holiday if we want to though.

 

We get a tv put in our common room at college to watch the games. Also get supplied with food! Although it is meant for inbetween lessons and free periods.
