text: Robin: Appologies, it really irks me
  Olive: Fair enough :P So what else do people do that "irks" you?
  Robin: at work? general bitchiness and a lack of common sence, having to clean up after the previous shift because "it's not my job" even though when i do the shift its my job
  Robin: ironing as well, now i was brought up wash clothes, hang them on the line let the wind air them and gravity dop creases outt, then ron them, i got chewwed out because i told the lass on nights there were shower curtains on the line, she throws a wobbler about hos its always been my job and she does more work than me and stewart, it was 5 curtains and she'd have finished all her jobs thor the shift in an hour and a half easily
  Olive: You really hate your job, don't you... :(
  Olive: Do any other employees feel that way though?
  Robin: the jobs not bad its just some of the people i work with, yes me and stewart are in the same boat
  Robin: he's former rhodesian counter terrorist police, also did firearms for movies like the expendables with schwartzneiger
  Olive: And he hates it too?
  Robin: has the same irks, sometimes the job is ace, the guest can be great and being aknowleged by them either with a card or tripp advisor is ace
  Robin: i just hate what amounts to sexism
  Olive: Sorry mate :( Wish i could help
  Robin: i'm alright - just nice to chat with someone from time to time...
  Robin: Like apparently the cleaners and female night staff have been placing rubbish on the floor to see if I've hovered up, the woman on nights wasn't impressed when I hadn't ironed wet shower curtains fresh out of the wash. She's the one who apparently "does more than we do on shift" yet she wont do paperwork that she'd throw her dummy out if it hadn't been done for her 
  Robin: And my manager supports her whole heartedly
  Olive: Fun fact - the cleaning ladies tick was something that mistresses would do in Victorian times to make sure that the servants were doing their job properly.
  Olive: One such trick involved hiding a coin, under a rug - if the servant gave the money back, she was trustworthy. If the servant took the money, the mistress would know. And if the servant missed the coin completely, she clearly wasn't doing her job.
  Olive: Now that I've gotten that (interesting, but completely useless) fact out of the way, I think the only thing I can say is: hang in there. Or better yet - don't give them (aka your boss) a reason to fire you.
  Olive: Right now, you're in a tough situation because you need the job more than they need you - so, even though it's unfair (and I completely agree with you btw), the only way to win the war is to not let them get you down.
  Olive: Man... I suck at giving advice.
  Robin: Completely useless information is always useful for pub quizzes, flattered, deffinatly go with flattered
  Olive: What about the remainder of my answer... ?
  Robin: the advice is good, and your right I just need to push through it, as for military I've not a clue, run with the pups try and rehabilitate my joints and see if theres any career I can do, although im also looking at museum's as a possible career 
  Olive: That could be fun - it's interesting, right? :D
  Olive: Have you tried getting a job there?
  Robin: Looking online atm but I haven't seen much
target: Robin had an argument with a female colleague at work. He works with Stewart, ex-policeman, that has the same problems. Female night staff and cleaners put the rubbish on the floor to check if he hoovers it. She doesn't do any paperwork. The manager supports her. Robin needs this job.
