    Agree, always fun on construction sites. Aussies tend to take the p!ss out of each other constantly. I've worked on a few for foreign companies where they import people from all over the world, some struggle with it at first. Took us a year to gte an Indian bloke into the swing of the Aussie way.

    I thought I'd been pretty well exposed to the good old Ausie banter, Lived on Campus at University, Worked underground at Mt Isa when I was early 20's, Copper and lead smelters, Gas pipeline, yada yada yada...BUT got into underground coal mining 10 years ago.

    Never heard anything like it. Leave your feelings at the gate, and all your friends and families feelings there too. Nothing sacred. Show a weakness and it will be exploited forever. Not that bad as long as you can give it AND take it, but you get those days when you just feel enough's enough, you just can't show it..!
