Re: At work yesterday
Bosses at work are taking it further don't know how , me and two other lads had to write a statement this afternoon , told me I should have walk off the job when people are threatening us , but understand why I didn't as I had the situation in control , they also said the they spoken to the police why they didn't take more action , apparently the couple that live in this house surrounded by body guards with Attidues are only in their mid twentys ,And I thought the they were in their 40s 50s to have such money and security ,

My old brother inlaw was a courier driver , as he drop large package off many years ago, the police come from everywere , in the packages were drugs , he was innocent , but the police knew what he was carrying and arrested all the people that lived at the address , at the time I thought it was bit naughty of the police knowing the packages had drugs and allowed a courier company to deliver them , basically putting him at risk

But as you say most of your customers are millionaires, a few thousand quid would be nothing to them I suppose.

Yes most of our customers are millionaires , we do royal properties buckingham palace etc , have the queens warrent , all london police stations and most embassy's , every member of staff have been check out by the police as its a must to work in such places , like doing royal properties you have different security passes , the lowest one is you have to be have a police officer or royal protection officer with you at all times and your restricted to were you can go , mine pass I can go alone around the gardens on my own , and go into kitchien and out buildings , our company is expensive , but think most of out customer whom are very rich like the fact we are check out by the police and have passes to work in such places
