Surely not because of my 25+ years "experience'?? No......... ??
Sadly companies (and modern management) cannot seem to grasp that "bits of paper" do not equal experience nor competence.
Yet HS people who have done all the courses have all the power and no experience, (but then I think you should be able to be a cop till you are at least 30 and have actually had a life of experiences)
In my case this could all have been avoided by addressing the root cause and I would have stayed

I really feel for the farmers who have really been whacked by the whole HS butt covering exercise. God knows its hard enough to find private land to shoot on now.
Soon its going to be impossible.

I'd be sick that last week or off on stress leave! @mikee
