Introduction	.......I'm a dedicated and conscientous public servant working in an agency of the Irish Government. I'm proud to be a public servant and it was a deliberate choice for me to join and build a career serving the citizens of Ireland and the visitors to our shores. Why "gruntled"? Gruntled is an old medieval terms meaning "grumbling" - this is my outlet for grumbling!! Apart from being a public servant I'm also a citizen and consumer of public and governmental services, and what I see sometimes gruntles me, for example poor service, avoidable waste, bad management and neglectful organisations. Equally, when the public service comes in for unjust criticism, that can be a source of gruntling. The public service is by no means perfect, but being such a big target doesn't mean it should be the subject of potshots from organisations who know better but are just out for cheap publicity. My objective is express my gruntles in a way that is sometimes witty, sometimes informative, maybe even cynical and always with clarity and brevity. I hope you enjoy reading them.
