Students.

For some reason… actually, no, scrub that, for dozens of reasons, we fucking hate students: lazy, spoilt, dopey, scruffy, long haired, constantly complaining, work-shy, cheque-writing, fucking dreary cunts. Ask any builder what they think of students and that’s the sort of glowing tribute you can expect.

But weirdly, none of the above is what gets our goats up the most. What really does it is the fact that despite being lazy, spoilt, dopey, scruffy, long haired, constantly complaining, work-shy, cheque-writing, fucking dreary cunts, they all seem to think it’s their divine right to tell the rest of us how to live. That theirs is the generation that has been chosen to show us the way. Most students are like lippy, backchatting little teenagers who think they know it all. But the thing with teenagers is that this confidence soon dissipates once they get handed a hod and told to load out a dozen muddy footings, or giving a broom and told to sweep up around the barber’s feet, or a shirt and tie and told to add up a column of the chief accountant’s numbers. Because work has the curious effect of slapping down your ego, while at the same time elevating your opinion of your elders, particularly if those same elders started out loading out footings, sweeping up hair or adding up numbers years before you came along. There you go, son; been there, seen it, done it. Now it’s your turn. Try to keep up – if you can.
