The Suffolk Fire Experience - Doc 152 Reasons to Re-Elect Ruth Winters FBU President

Comments Doc 151


Seems the transfer request (Doc 7) X put in 18 months earlier isn’t worth the paper it’s written on.

Nor would it seem the missive (Doc 20) Temporary Deputy Chief Fire Officer Seager sent to all Sub Officers in May 1997. Seems that according to DO Bob’s or is it Boobs interpretation the Lowestoft watch Sub Officers do in fact have an inalienable to remain operational by post blocking. So says DO R Batchelor Oficer (Training)

Quite fortunate Divisional Oficer Boobs is not responsible for spelling.

A short while in the future the same conundrum would be posed to Divisional Oficer Boobs by Bob Ayers who was eager to obtain a Sub Officer post. On that occasion Divisional Oficer Boobs advice was to buy a Honda 50cc moped and a gallon of petrol and put in for a Sub Officers job at Ipswich. Thus giving eager Bob Ayers a cheap 96 mile return trip up and down the A12 every working day and night. As might be expected Eager Bob Ayers was a little peeved and the utterance wanker, amongst many other derogatory terms were to express his disgust at Divisional Oficer Boobs patronising advice. But no harm done as Eager Bob evolved into Wise Bob Ayers when he jumped ship and bagged a job with Norfolk Fire Service and as part of the bargain a lot less travelling.
