But you chose to do the job, if you didn't like it you
could have quite easily found something else, such as
joining the underground and having a nice cushy job.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^

your reply to that was:
I didn't like it. I did leave and get something else. Thats
the whole point...

Perhaps when you learn to read at a standard higher than that of a
5 year old and can actually follow a thread, you might be able to
figure
out that I was talking about leaving the salesman job.


[after that you immediately started whining about the bad tube
drivers
getting payed for their job and having a union caring for them - what

the big deal about it is I still don't understand]

I'm actually "whining" about them always going on strike when they're
overpaid and overpampered already.

P.S.: Maybe you should have joined the tube, you wouldn't have to
risk a
stroke every five seconds because of your anger. On second thoughts
you'd suffer the stress of driving trains and unsocial hours then -
better not then, stay where you are.

Perhaps if you were self employed and your income *depended* on being
able to get to work (no sick or holiday pay) like mine did at the last
tube strike then you and a load of other apologists on here wouldn't be
so
sanguine about strikes. And as for unsocial hours, pal, I've done
overnight
support work and been at my desk at 3 in the morning so don't talk to
me
about how the poor sausages driving the trains sometimes have to knock
off
at 1am.
