Billy Taylor: Go through the messages from last night
R Jones: Do you deny saying tough like?
Billy Taylor: Yer, I do – childish comment, you said an awful lot as well - notice my replies to what you said aren’t in there
R Jones: No, the thing is…… Billy: No, I’m not going to argue, I’ve been told not to argue with you
R Jones: Are you going to give me book 31?
Billy Taylor: I’ll give you copies that’s as per the company’s response & whatever you want, I’ve told you before write in there, I’ll get you copies.
R Jones: I want the book, I want the whole book.
Billy Taylor:
HR says you can’t
R Jones: What do you mean HR can’t, I can… its for my appeal
Billy Taylor:
You can’t, it’s the company’s…… Well ok, speak to HR, I’ve been told not to argue with you & I’m not going to.
Billy Taylor: What’s that got to do with you; do you have to take them back?
R Jones: It’s on my duty sheet to take them back
Billy Taylor:
Guard1 said there wasn’t many there
R Jones: 4 plates
Billy Taylor:
It’s not a lot, 4 plates is it?
R Jones: If I go up there to take plates back & I come back & miss a trailer or something has happened – I mean, I’m not even allowed to shut the gate – you said I locked the gate which was wrong – it was a lie!
Billy Taylor:
I didn’t say that – I read your message
R Jones: You lied, you lied, you lied at that erm, grievance
Billy Taylor: So did you
R Jones: I didn’t
Billy Taylor:
You spoke a load of shite
R Jones: Billy, you know……
Billy Taylor:
(Flapping his arms around) Anyway, NO, NO, NO, NO – I’m not going to argue with you
R Jones: No I won’t – you said I locked them gates & in the book it doesn’t even say I locked the gate – you did say I locked the gates
Billy Taylor:
Locked the barriers, locked the door
R Jones: I didn’t say I locked the gates, you said I locked the gates
Billy Taylor:
You locked up, why didn’t you say “I didn’t lock the gates?” at the…..
R Jones: Because it’s in the book & I can’t get at that book, so there’s no need to lie, you lied twice at that grievance
Billy Taylor:
You lied a fuckin million times, your whole thing was a lie, you’re a shit stirring trouble maker.. (clenching his teeth & fists) Right!!!
R Jones: My job depends on this & your putting my…….
Billy Taylor:
Does it, does it?
R Jones: Yes it does. My family……
Billy Taylor:

R Jones: Is that right?
Billy Taylor:
Yes it is!
R Jones: Are you trying to get me sacked, why, why Billy, why don’t you be a man enough & tell me why are you trying to get me sacked?
Billy Taylor:
You’ve done nothing, hours? You’ve done, I’m not even gonna argue, I’ve been told….
R Jones: But why are you trying to get me sacked
Billy?
Billy Taylor: Since you come here you’ve been a shit stirring, from you, you’re the worst guard we’ve ever had here
R Jones: Why is that Billy, I’m only trying to do my job.
Billy Taylor:
Hours, hours, hours
R Jones: You only trained me up for 4 nights & everything you got me on
Billy Taylor:
You said it was 2 nights at the meeting, you said 2 nights at the meeting see, you lie, you got 4 nights..
R Jones: I still never went outside, You’ve got me on things that were done outside & I haven’t even been trained up outside
Billy Taylor:
You’ve been here for 8 months
R Jones: It doesn’t matter
Billy Taylor:
I said to the new guy “Where’s the first aid office? And he said ”over there”
R Jones: Because Guard1 showed him
Billy Taylor:
Your telling me you never went outside
R Jones: I never went outside, no
Billy Taylor:
Your telling me that in 8 months you don’t know how to get to first aid.
R Jones: I do now… All them things you got on me, you said you had 20 things - why didn’t you bring this 20 up?
Billy Taylor:
Coz I don’t know
R Jones: Your trying to get me sacked
Billy Taylor: I don’t want you sacked
R Jones: You do, you do Billy
Billy Taylor: You’ve been an arse hole since coming here
R Jones: You gave me a final warning
Billy Taylor: That’s right!
R Jones: My family & everyone suffers because you give me a final warning
Billy Taylor: Listen, you said yourself… you’re an arse hole… we’re all going to lose our jobs because of you
R Jones: You’ve always said that, you’re always saying, rock the boat, Don’t rock the boat
Billy Taylor: That’s right!
R Jones: I confronted you over Halton Warehouse
Billy Taylor: You don’t confront me with nothing, you work for me, you don’t confront me.
R Jones: You should admit fault
Billy Taylor:
I have – I’ve owned up to that
R Jones: That was my nephew you had in here
Billy Taylor:
What’s it got to do with you?
R Jones: You used my family so you could stay at home
Billy Taylor:
No I didn’t
R Jones: Yes you have & since then, you’ve been after me
Billy Taylor:
No, no, no, no I haven’t
R Jones: You’ve been circling – You circled my work & now all this
Billy Taylor:
You got rid of Frank, coz you were part of the reason Frank left & he’s willing to stand up, you called me a Wanker to **** ***** last night, that’s another thing…
R Jones: **** *****? **** ***** wasn’t even here….
Billy Taylor:

R Jones: I don’t remember doing that
Billy Taylor:
Well he remembers coz he told me the other day, fuckin wanker (Shaking his hand to suggest wanking)
R Jones: I don’t remember doing that
Billy Taylor:
Be man enough to say it to me any time you want
[RJ - This is the start of the supervisor's threats]
R Jones: No, you be man enough to tell me what you’re doing with my job, if you want me to walk, I’ll walk but I want the truth from you
Billy Taylor:
What do you mean? Listen, I’m not going to argue with you because your fuck all to me.. You work for me
R Jones: Yer, and you’re the big boss are you? You’re using your power against me
Billy Taylor:

R Jones: Oh, is that right, is that right?
Billy Taylor:

R Jones: Because you can’t control your guards
Billy Taylor:
You told me you wound Frank up……………….
R Jones: You do nothing on days, I feel sick to the stomach knowing the general manager pays you a wage for doing nothing
Billy Taylor: You’re the worst guard we’ve ever had here
R Jones: You even bollocked us for not drawing lines in the book
Billy Taylor:

R Jones: You can do that when all you do is stand there warming your arse on the heater..
Billy Taylor: So could you, so could you
R Jones: Lazy Get, How much do you get paid?
Billy Taylor: A lot more than you
R Jones: For doing nothing
Billy Taylor: What do you do?

Billy Taylor: Yer, so would you, you can’t do your job coz you’re the biggest shit stirrer we’ve ever had here
R Jones: Why do you keep putting things in the book, why don’t you just ask me to my face? Why are there always question marks in the book?
Billy Taylor: That’s not the point
R Jones: Yes it is , you are my supervisor
Billy Taylor: I put a question, then we have a conversation – we’ve done it like this for 17 years – that isn’t even a legal requirement
R Jones: It’s the year 2002 now Billy , your stuck in your old ways
Billy Taylor: So what? Don’t you worry about it!
