Darren Weir

In fairness  tho, Jimmy prolly hasnt got a whole lot of room to bag someone else ?

an extract please 

In life its something that gets up my nose, anyone that thinks they are better than anyone else or more important, or a uses a reference as key player to puff their chest. 

Reminds me of a leading trainer i was standing behind in a racing office that gave a serve to the lady at the counter whilst getting his race book and owners tickets. The classic and abrupt, Don't you know who i am. Then proceeded to say you need to be replaced if you don't know who leading trainers are, was an absolute grubby form of bullying and i would never go into a horse that this bloke trained. You then hear these guys on the radio referred to as champion blokes when some are weak individuals.    

Back Weir, drink beer. 

Should be; Back Weir, support fear. 

Goes to show grubby owners will support any form of cruelty to get results. 

report it at the time, or grow a set and confront them (perpetrators)

in a previous life, if I knowingly allowed unsafe work practices to take place, or allowed others to do so, i would have been sacked, and or, depending on the issues and or  events therefrom, could or would have been in court and sued under the act.

Plus at every prestart, the message of see anything that may result in an serious event happening, stop the works, fix the problem and report it, not hard is it? beats doing an investigation into injury or worse.

i don't think owners would have set up the cameras or advised the police, the same sort of thing happened in the shearing industry, where a person worked with a contractor for some time, with a concealed camera and after he got the "evidence" took the video to the police whilst pocketing his weekly wages for some time, ( so much for his conscience or care, when the mighty dollar was involved)  the blokes involved in the activity of mistreating sheep, were convicted  (rightly so) and found it hard if not impossible to find work, if the cockies had of known about it they would more than likely have sacked the perpetrators, ( but it is not an activity that is done in front of the contractor or the cocky) and possibly the whole sorry affair would have been avoided (speak up or shut up at the time in my book), poss off out of the industry and let someone else who might have a set and the guts to do something about things like that at the time, and not be worried about milking it for all its worth before taking it further

If the person was so offended by the mistreatment, he should have notified the contractor or the cocky and let them manage it accordingly
