The grumpy thread

[Negative Creep]

Only working on an "as needed" basis in my second job. Can understand why since business has dropped off, but it means less money for me. My main job is 13k a year before tax, despite all that time at uni it's the best I can find. My sister left school at 16, married someone with a good job and lives in a luxury flat in Dubai, currently driving a brand new Golf GTi. Ho hum.

Maybe you should have married him first?

What can I say Al, grow tits?

 

Things will get better for you I hope, I've had 13 years in a job I'm growing to hate, you just have to find purpose in something, and then it doesn't matter about what you earn, just as long as it is round about enough.

Two sides to each story: at least you're not the one who risks 5 years' imprisonment for pissing off the local sheikh's nephew!

It's not much fun living there, but for the money they earn I would gladly suffer it. It is however a shite spotters hell, with virtually zero chod lying around

Yesterday my mate borrowed a van off his work to move a sofa*.

We loaded it up with about a ton of our scrap, including a full vw t25 shell cut into six bits. Absolutely buckled ourselves getting it all in there.

 

Got to the yard, nobody around. Then we noticed it was 12:01pm and every scrapyard in the entire south yorkshire area was closed.

 

We've got to try and borrow the van again next weekend to "move another sofa" and do the whole hilarious charade again.

Hangovers

[Lord Sterling]

Been doing a bit of car washing this weekend after being offered a sort-of part-time position. Generally I hate dealing with the public and today I was reminded why.

 

As I work at an ARC/IMO car wash, with most offeres we do a pre-wash by hand (Soapy brush/jetwash) usually to get rid of any stuck on crap that the carwash itself cannot reach/get off. Some young gobshite in a Golf pulls up to the car we're working on an gets a bit a close, I tell him to move back a bit as we need to work on the car, as I walk away from the car I'm working on, he winds down his window and asks me why I was swearing at him, my boss comes over and asks not to worry and carry on as I felt like launching at the twatface.

 

After going through the carwash he pulls up, tafter talking to other guys he comes over and starts trying to engage me in conversation, obviously almost immidiately hge starts off with - Listen mayte, doant start shewtin ya mouth off rewnd 'ere loike - To which I let him know that if I had something to say to anyone, I'd tell them straight. But he carries on - Listen roight, I aye fuckin stupid, you wer effin and blindin at mey, which I clearly didnt, so I retoreted quite forcefully by asking him if I said he was stupid, and then I get the yer but no but yer but etc...

 

Chav twat.

 

This is one of the reasons I no longer work at the garage as I had 5 very long days of dealing with basic idiots and it got to point where I just retorted quite rudely as I just couldnt believe the stupidity of many people these days.

Probably thought he could get away with being an arse as any response would get you fired.

 

I think the Hearst© method of public persuasion is called for under the circumstances. (Hose the bugger down with hot shampoo)

Time and time again we get people writing in claiming the person they spoke to on the phone was rude or gave them incorrect information. About 90% of the time we listen to the call and it's the customer who was rude or obviously misheard. It is nice to write back in a slightly smug manner saying we proved them wrong

One reason I enjoy working for small bus companies is that you're often the only transport link and people have to use your bus. It was good in some ways (I never had to buy food for months on my regular duty as the punters fed me) but you got some roasters. I remember picking up from one of the drivers, whom we shall call Myra (as that is her name), about 20 minutes late (as usual). Consequently I was giving it some welly in order to make up some time as I finished when I got off the bus three hours later. Heard the bell ring, got ready to pull into the next bus stop. Old bugger remarks "You're going awfully fast driver, you could cause an accident! Do you think you're Stirling Moss or something?"

 

I couldn't help myself. "No, I am related to him though."

 

"I'm not taking that level of cheek from a bus driver! I want your PSV badge number!"

 

"Bus drivers haven't been issued with PSV badges since the early 1990s."

 

"I want your name! I am putting in an official complaint to your bosses!"

 

"Steve Moss. Get aff!"

 

 

The old bugger did actually phone in to complain. My boss laughed heartily as he put the phone down...

The troll over on RR, WTF is that all about?

A racist little shit who has nothing better to do. The mods can't completely nail him because he never posts from a static IP. They reckon he posts from a mobile, and every time they ban him, he signs up again and does the same thing - posts several abhorrent threads which are ignored and then removed.

 

The actions of a brain dead teenage chav if you ask me - carrying on and on and on until they provoke a reaction. Or get twatted in the face and thrown off the tram. Not that I've ever seen that happen......

[trigger]

It's been going on nearly everyday for at least a month now, I really can't understand what they are trying to achieve, one thing to be said for them though is that their're persistent, I've never known a troll to go into that amount of spamming before or be that racist before.

[autofive]

the racism, and most of the comments, are a bit weird

 

like they learned their racism from roy of the rovers

 

maybe english is not their first language

[morris_ital_lover]

Indeed, Bananas and Enoch Powell mentioned there... indeed it is a weird one. That seems to hint at someone old, the use of "reight" and talk of London as a distant place full of races he doesn't like seems to hint to an old school regional (possibly Northern) racist. Hopefully he'll go but he seems to be clued up on how to avoid detection... and he sure as hell is persistant.

[autofive]

yes, there was a post with a leeds/bradford expression used, maybe a foreign student then, even racist fuckwitts are usually more vocal then this troll.

 

posting at various times between 1pm and 3am

 

learned how to upload a pic to the board

 

someone just making extra work for the moderators perhaps?

[scaryoldcortina]

I think there is a reasonable possibility that the RR troll does it because he feels "wronged" by RR and racist taunts get a reaction. I also think there is a possibility that he owns an Austin A40 Countryman.....

That a40 guys Photobucket ID is mitch12341. I was curious the other day after he got rebanned or whatever so I bunged it in google:

JEEZ!!!

[RedSparrow]

Hhahaaahha!

He's on about every tranny / swinger site going. He's either some kind of super-troll or as I suspect a young man who probably almost never leaves his mothers house, and so this is the only way he can get attention.

[maxpower]

LOL... just had a vision of him sitting in his sister's bra and sussies... looking like the old woman les dawson used to do... nicotine stained fingers tapping away while sweating profusely.... and his mum calling up "mitch you're tea is ready"

Interesting lad.

[Cheggers]

That fugging "American Guns" trailer they're playing to death on Discovery Turbo - Is it the only one they have??

[sporty-shite]

Dropped Miss Sporty at nursery this morning and noticed one of the centre caps missing from the 480. Was well pissed off that I might have lost it, so retraced my journey at 20mph to see if I could see it at the side of the road. No luck. Gotr home, had another look, and there's scratch marks on the wheel, so it looks like some CUNT has nicked it.

 

Why? Not like they need to replace one of their own, seeing as it's probably the only 480 in the region.

 

What's pissed me off even more than it making the car look scruffy, is the fact that Wat was supposed to be buying these wheels back off me. Not going to be as keen now, is he? Another kick in the bank balance.

[Richard]

If it looks like this one I'll send you a replacement FOC.

 

 

An eBay twat sent me it when he'd listed "Omega" caps so it's no use to me.

Chris, this is bizarre. Not only are those five spokes pretty uncommon now, they were never offered as standard in that colour - the bloke in Dartford I bought them off sprayed them that colour to go with his 300. Don't worry, I still want them off you. I'll get another centre cap from somewhere and spray it.

Richard, I don't think it's identical, but could probably be made to fit. PM me your paypal, the least I can do is cover a couple of beers for you. And the postage, of course.

 

I love AS!!

 

Jon, I know they were non-standard colour, which pisses me off even more, because it hasn't even been nicked to be used on other chod. Some spotty little youth probably has it on his bedroom wall, the little shit.

 

I'm going to take these wheels off this week, anyway, before they end pp getting damaged or something, so they're here whenever you want them.
