Some ex job really struggle to be relevant on here once they can’t talk job in the same way they used to. It’s quite sad, stay strong lovely ♥️

EXCL: Fire service bosses in Shropshire talked about wanting to 'kill' and harm female colleagues.

Leaked messages we’ve obtained refer to women as “lazy cow”, “feckin bint” and “useless”.
