the national roads authority is saying that it will (illegally) proceed with building a motorway (the remaining section of the m50) through the middle of it
As far as I know there has never been a road diverted or stopped because of stuff found during an archaeological dig. You're just hired to record what's there for posterity, Silo, not to preserve it. Sad, perhaps, but true
And Pantone/pete, it's not the conditions of your work that grind you down in the end - it's the routine, the lack of control over your time and your output ... or so I found. I've had lots of jobs, some better/more enjoyable than others, and they all get you down in the end. Public/private sector doesn't matter, just having a job is bad for your soul
