Sounds like York LO needs deregulating, an hour to process a form and print a license, sounds like they deffo need at least 25 more LO's to handle the one day in the year they are needed, but hey they should be on full time contracts as you never know there could be 2 days in a year the office gets swamped, good for the goose, good for the gander eh. |
