A local champion from the Betoota Heights has today drawn a few sighs from around his job site.
Robert Wilders (52) or Robbo as he’s known to most, did so a short time ago after being spotted spending his entire smoko standing on the street.
Armed with a 2 litre bottle of chocolate milk and a giant apple turnover from the Vietnamese Bakery down the road, Robbo reportedly spent his 15 minute break treating the new traffic controller to his unreleased biography.
Beginning with tales of his childhood and sharing stories over their shared love of Bali (that Orla mentioned once in a passing comment), Robbo explained to The Advocate that he’s a fan of Orla.
“Mate, I love the Irish, they are just so similar to us Aussies,” said Robbo.
“So I just thought I’d take some time to make Orla feel at home on our site.”
“Some of this young fellas are so caught up with their phones that they don’t know how to talk to a member of the opposite sex in real life.”
“I think she enjoyed the chat too btw.”
While Robbo’s patting himself on the back for his interaction with the noticeably attractive new employee on the heavily male dominated site, other’s aren’t so sure.
“Ah Robbo,” sighed one of his colleagues, Tim.
“He’s got a real penchant for the traffic control industry.”
“Last week he was a big fan of Brazil too.”
“He is harmless though.”
More to come.
