Title: A Letter From The North Sea
Post by: KKOB on December 08, 2008, 06:50:06 AM
This was allegedly written recently by a North Sea rig worker. I think he's got a point!

I work, they pay me.

I pay my taxes and the government distributes my taxes as it sees fit.

In order to earn that pay cheque, I work on a rig for a drilling contractor.

I am required to pass a random urine test, with which I have no problem.

What I do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes to people who don't have to pass a urine test. Shouldn't one have to pass a urine test to get a welfare cheque, because I have to pass one to earn it for them?

Please understand that I have no problem with helping people get back on their feet. I do on the other hand have a problem with helping someone sit on their *rse drinking beer and smoking dope.

Could you imagine how much money the government would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a welfare cheque?

Please pass this along if you agree or simply delete it if you don't.

I hope you will pass it along though, because something has to change in the UK, and soon!
