Really intergrating
I just saw a sign that shows how well the Brazilian community is getting the hang of things in Ireland .
Since the meat factory burnt down they have had to diversify into all sorts of work .
The sign ....
3 hard working brazilian men seeking work
good workers, reliable .
anything considered , phone*** ********
thank you .

The poor devils. They hav'n't even got a lavatory.
There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

Re: Really intergrating
Thats 'cos you ain't integrated into Irish life .I don't get it.
They will do any of the crap jobs no one likes , picking stones after ploughing , sorting spuds , insulating with fibreglass , but they won't work the Bog , because no-one in their right mind likes doing that job .
They must have been caught out by someone and got suckered into it previously .
Re: Really intergrating
What is the bog? You mean like a swamp?

Re: Really intergrating
I assume working the "bog" has something to do with Harvesting Peat... though I could be wrong.

It's the bathroom, the toilets, the loo, the restroom, etc

A horrible , back breaking , dirty job , with the added bonus that you provide a meal for thousands of blood sucking insects .
Re: Really intergrating
Ugh, the bog...
I had to go there and get turf for my aunt in Donegal during one summer holiday, awful stuff...

Re: Really intergrating
So, who DOES get relegated to bog-work, usually?
Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.

Or you send the kids when they are old enough but before they get the sense to not do it .
The recent immigrants were a good labour source , but they are getting wise to it now , as the sign showed .
But believe it or not there are some strange people who actually like the work , there are even some real masochists who like it so much they still cut by hand , turning a hard dirty job into a really hard , really dirty , long job .
Personally I havn't touched my stand for the last 3 years , but as I will have some of my nieces and nephews over next summer I might send up them for the hell of it .
Re: Really intergrating
From here
But not for Brazilians working in Ireland, apparently.Over the past three decades peat (or turf) production in Ireland has been transformed from a rudimentary hand-won operation to a highly mechanized and commercially profitable national industry. Through a pragmatic admixture of government policy-making and technological advancement 130,000 acres of bogland have been converted into a major fuel production complex. Peat has captured a large share of the domestic solid fuel market, both rural and urban, and accounts for one-quarter of the nation's electricity output. Owing to recent international energy shortages and inflated fuel import costs, the economic viability of peat fuel has been greatly enhanced. As a consequence, a major expansion program has been initiated. Nascent recognition of the new "peat economics" has stimulated interest in other countries and prompted serious re-examination of long-neglected boglands. Apart from providing a valuable source of indigenous energy, the industry has made appreciable social and economic contributions, particularly in terms of buttressing balance of payments and generating employment in rural districts.
25% of electric output... way more than what we're trying with wind & solar here.
Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.
Re: Really intergrating
As someone who lives very close to the major peat moors in England, I hope that Blair doesn't get to hear of this.
On the other hand it could be a way of using our young offenders to find gainful employment.

Bah, it was forced labour. We were taken out to the *rse of nowhere and told we'll get no dinner unless we cut turf...Originally Posted by Tribesman

Excellent idea, what else could we send the yobs out to do?As someone who lives very close to the major peat moors in England, I hope that Blair doesn't get to hear of this.

Re: Really intergrating
Colonise somewhere?
When Adam delved and Eve span, Who was then the gentleman? From the beginning all men by nature were created alike, and our bondage or servitude came in by the unjust oppression of naughty men. For if God would have had any bondsmen from the beginning, he would have appointed who should be bound, and who free. And therefore I exhort you to consider that now the time is come, appointed to us by God, in which ye may (if ye will) cast off the yoke of bondage, and recover liberty. - John Ball
