Local Betoota-based builder Bevan Parker has today reminded his 17-year-old apprentice, Scotty, that he can get married now – and asked him when the big day is.
“You’d be stoked about the news wouldn’t ya?” asks Bevan.
“Hahaha”
While the surrounding sub-contractors giggle at Bev’s ripper call , Scotty responds with a light-hearted “Oi! fuck off haha”
It is believed that this same bloody ripper call has been emulated across worksites right around the nation today, after the Australian Bureau of Statistics confirmmed that the people of Australia have in fact voted in favour of changing the law to allow same-sex marriage.
The final participation rate accounted for 79.5 per cent of eligible voters, most of whom decided that gays can get married and who gives a fuck.
Bevan, who is a supporter of same-sex marriage, mainly because he hates Tony Abbott with every inch of his being, says it’s still pretty fun to suggest that his apprentice is gay, even though he’s not.
“We love giving him curry” said Bevan.
“It’s all a bit of fun, we never take it too far”
Scotty, however, who doesn’t yet know the boundaries of worksite banter is planning his revenge strike on his boss of six months.
“I just poured a kilo of woolies cooking sugar into his fuel tank” laughs the ADHD-positive Candycrush addict.
“Got him so good. He’s gonna be fuming haha”
