Excuse me? I never claimed to have driven one...


[rubish snipped]

As I can clearly show it did very much seem like you were claiming
exactly that. You didn't quote to well there, hence the misunderstanding.

joining the underground and having a nice cushy job.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^

your reply to that was:

the whole point...

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

You didn't like _what_? Your reply could easily be mistaken as it's hard
to tell whether you did quit driving or "cleaning doorhandles".

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 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.

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

risk a

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.

I've worked shift work all my life, are you boasting about being held
back to 3am one day?

I push you to the fact that your reply could have been mistaken and the
above is all that comes to your mind?

You must be of very poor education mate.

Yes it could have been mistaken. By a halfwit or someone who didn't
bother
to follow the whole thread, jumped in the deep end , found he got the
wrong
end of the stick and tried to bluster his way out.

You can't follow a simple thread and you accuse me of a poor education?
You sound like 100% pure chav to me. Blaming someone else for your own
stupidity.

You're improving even further. If stupidity'd hurt you'd be crying your
arse off. Get your marbles together and play with them.
