They've obviously never employed anyone from Merthyr Tydfil then.....

That's Scottish workers in Perthshire who don't want to work in hospitality, not all Scots ... and it might just be that that hotel has a reputation locally as a bad place to work. I find it all very convenient that the place is run by Aussies and, surprise surprise, they are employing Aussies.

We (my employer, that is) have more than a couple of hotels north of the border and I can tell you that the guest satisfaction survey results we get from that part of the UK are consistently better than elsewhere.

My sister has lived in Scotland for the last 20 years & our family have a time share chalet in Aviemore, that we have visited most of those years. At no time have we ever seen any evidence of Scots being rude or lazy - quite the opposite, in fact!

I suspect there is an element of getting back what you give out going on here....

Re: Scots workers "rude and lazy"
 

thats complete and utter rubbish.........off I return to sit on my arse and pretend to work;)

I'ts not just Scots :p: those in Plymouth (Royal Mail) are just as bad! :mad:

Sad thing is I know you aren't joking. :D

Re: Scots workers "rude and lazy"
 

I bet their hotel will get a lot of recomendations from the locals :rolleyes:

Sounds like there is a kind of race issue here. They appear to think that because someone is Australia they are a better worker than someone born in Sconny Botland. Perhaps a Scottish person should apply for a job and put on an Aussie ascent!

Quote from article:
Bosses of a hotel in Scotland say they have been forced to employ Australian staff - because the locals are too rude and lazy.

1) Source of article - Sky News.
2) Owner of Sky - Rupert Murdoch.
3) Nationality at birth of Rupert Murdoch - Australian.

QED :)

The majority ownership of sky is public and institutional shareholders.
