Foreman Reckons Apprentice Knows A Thing Or Two About What’s It Like To Have A Meat Shortage Haha

A local foreman has today announced that if anyone knows something about a meat shortage, it’s the new apprentice, Toby.

It’s alleged the topic of discussion popped up over a smoko break, when one of the tradies had mentioned his trouble finding meat at his local Woolies.

Citing that he’d gone to numerous grocery stores to find steak that wasn’t stupidly expensive, his experience was quickly mirrored by some of the other blokes, who agreed that finding anything other than kangaroo meat was virtually impossible.

Eager to jump into the conversation with his own two cents, Toby, unfortunately, wasn’t able to contribute a similar commiseration as his mum did the grocery shopping.

But, he could harp on about the government and why the meat shortage was utter bollocks – which unfortunately gave the foreman way too much ammunition.

“Bit of an expert on having a meat shortage are ya, Toby?”

Waggling his pinky at the now blushing apprentice, the foreman also added that he’s pretty sure he saw Toby shopping for underwear in the child’s section, before affectionately nicknaming him Tic Tac Toby, which quickly caught on with the rest of the crew.

More to come.
