The term 'site assistant' used to be applied to people who had been raised from the ranks to assist the Director/Supervisor(s) in recording etc, diggers were diggers - I'd been digging for years before I got promoted to such an exalted position ...so when did every digger get promoted? :face-stir:

If they can get you asking the wrong questions, they don't have to worry about answers

That was my point though. ''Site assistants'' aren't actually assisting anybody, they're doing the job by themselves, under supervision by someone else. I think the job title is fairly misleading and demeaning.
