Carp a diem – why does he still have a job?

Tomasz Schafernaker that is.  The man whose pauses are all in the wrong places – we live in the Briti Shiles apparently.  Caught making rude signs off camera, and now supposedly spent a long hard night shift that resulted in him being sick towards the end of the shipping forecast.  Pink News reported: “The much loved presenter, who previously posed for Attitude magazine, appeared to splutter during the forecast.  Eventually he came off air altogether as it clearly got a bit too much for him. The forecast was at 5:20am, just hours after the BBC South East Christmas party had ended.  It’s thought to be the first time the Radio 4’s Shipping Forecast has been interrupted in its 91 year history”.

In the end he was disrespectful to a 91 year old institution, to the BBC, and to the sailing fraternity.  Mostly, he was disrespectful to his employer – the Me Toffice.
