Cathal Mac Coille shared a gas retirement present he got from his Morning Ireland colleagues
RollingNews.ie RollingNews.ie
EVEN WHEN YOU have done the same job for over thirty years and pretty much perfected your craft, there’s always going to be someone who’s still eager to criticise you.
Broadcasters are no strangers to rage-filled tirades of incoherent abuse from listeners at home. Cathal Mac Coille is probably happy to be getting a break from the last sixteen years of that on Morning Ireland now that he’s heading off on retirement.
However, as a nice little joke, his colleagues at RTÉ sent him away with one little reminder ‘not to lose the run of’ himself.
They framed one of the final angry comments that he received from a listener as a parting gift.
The email was sent at 8:50am on the 19th of July this year and it reads:
You’ve got to hand it to them for the polite conclusion to the email.
One man replied to Cathal’s tweet sharing the photograph with the remark “There’s always one!”, to which Cathal responded “Haha. Many more than one.”
Very, very true.
