My old man used to say to builders "I may be slow but I'm rough". I so enjoyed the look on their faces that I've adopted it.

Any complaints to me and I say "I might be rough, ugly slow or whatever but I can still **** & fight"
 
Used to know a gang of plasterers in the 70's on site, they used to turn up Monday morning with no intent to work and find a back door to the local pub, one young lad had the DT's and was shaking like a good un first thing in the morning.

They were earning good money even in them days.

There's some plasterers that I know who would turn up to work, sit in their van and have their tea then the next thing you'd hear is their van starting up and they were off.. Without even getting out. They'd be found in the pub. When they did work though they grafted. Site agent used to go nuts when they buggered off.
 
My mate lives in a real nice council flat (block of four). Unfortunately he has a complete arsehole living above him and a total tw@t living next door. There are also a few more on the estate who milk the system for all its got and couldn't give a monkies about anyone else. There are lots of folks who are ok though.
