Change gear, change gear, change gear, rape granny, change gear, change gear.......

[djflipsaxo]

Change gear, change gear, change gear, rape granny, change gear, change gear.......

1.fuck off
2. there auto (majority)
3. grow up

[Luke]

Only thing that annoys me about buses is that they just pull out of you. Dad says they have right away, as I remember when I was a kid all buses around here had the sticker.

Please let the buses pull out.

Why?

I don't want to give them right away, sometimes I do and 99% of the time, they say thankyou which is nice.

[djflipsaxo]

Well I've been gettin the same coaches to work for the last 7.5 years, so I'm use to the way they drive!

Sometimes they really suprise us and manage to sqeeze the coaches through the tightest gaps and we're like "How the fcuk did he do that without taking the side of the coach off?"... so they are very good drivers!!

see, i have proved that hardly anyone actually appreciates us!
we give cheap and free tavel for those who need it, it takes alot of concentration and you need to know the size of your veichle very well. when your carrying 80 people on a double decker, its serious business....yet people disrespect us and hink were below them

your right we have right of way, no on listens, if we didnt just start pulling out we would be there all day.

[djflipsaxo]

who me or him?

[alex19]

who me or him?

The change gear one :y:

[Luke]

your right we have right of way, no on listens, if we didnt just start pulling out we would be there all day.

I just don't understand why they should have right away, IMO it's just another vehicle on the road like my car.

Not having a go, just that annoys me lol. If I'm a decent distance behind, I'll flash them out but if I'm just approaching behind them, then I'll go round.

[djflipsaxo]

because were to keep to time tables, you let us out, we have our own lanes, etc etc
its to keep them moving. when your transporting people to places there are times to be kept to. to the best we can

[JoshG]

your right we have right of way, no on listens, if we didnt just start pulling out we would be there all day.

hang on?
your a bus driver?
are you male?
earlier you said your partner works in the bukding trade and said 'HE' nearly got laid off

so does that make you a 'gay bus driver'?

[Luke]

Charlotte is female Josh :)

[JoshG]

lol... ok.

[djflipsaxo]

Charlotte is female Josh :)

how do you know my name? lol yes i am all female

[djrem]

All this bullshit everyone talks about people claiming the rock and roll dole for doing jack all is pointless. As much as I hate people who use the system to live off when they don't even try to find new employment, all this chatting about it will never change it.

It's the way society is these days.
I go to work at 7am, get home at 5, 4 days a week and college on mondays 8-6.
I get £180 after Gordon Brown has taken his tax to pay all the lazy cunts in this country.

Those who claim the dole, most of them work anyway for cash in hand and will earn more than me anyway.

But I can't change the way the country is run, wish i could because I'd shoot every single one of those twats claiming the dole.


oo nice comment there i just hope you lose your job when you have a morgage and kids and see how far u get without claiming off benefits... idiot

[Mikey]

trainee civil engineer. including all my expenses about 24k a yearish.

[KamRacing]

There are loads of jobs where you can earn good money, though it takes time to get there as you have to learn the trade.
I used to contract as a creative artworker. Not a bad paying job at £20-25 p/h
Worked at some cool places like Sega and Three mobile but it took 10 years to build up my skills and reputation enough to get those jobs. Money was good when I had it but it would be mixed with bleak times too.
decided I wanted to start my own business to keep my interest in the modified car scene and now have no money, but lots of potential i think,
The best thing is I have something i enjoy doing and i deal with people every day who are as enthusiastic. I've never worked so hard or so many hours but its still fun....

Find a job you enjoy, if you are paid enough to still enjoy life then you are doing ok.
There will always be someone earning more and spending more on expensive things, but life isnt all about that.

Kev

[seat-craig]

I spend all my time talking about that stuff. If i tell people outside of work that i work in Agency again, it's the only topic that they want to speak to me about. Get's a little boring. Hence why i come on here and have a bit of banter. If not i'd end it now!

I also get a little bored of people constantly saying... "ooo, your lucky to have a job, your quiet." Yes we are but i work for a very good company who shouldn't have any problems!

ye i get that shit all the time

"ooooo your an estate agent difficult times blah blah loose your job blah gordon brown"


i cant take the negativity of this country sometimes people need to cheer up. if i didnt know about the credit crunch i would not have a clue about any financial crisis i still get paid the same?

[djrem]

Englands fucked.
But thanks for paying my bills while i seeked asylum here...

[djflipsaxo]

"All?" Lame. Wanted something different to talk about the process of the change. And to think i had £10k saved for nothing...

lol, damn i could have sold myself for loads.....:P

[djrem]

lol, damn i could have sold myself for loads.....:P

£2.6m good for you....?

[djflipsaxo]

£2.6m good for you....?

well i dont want to sell myself cheap..... so how about rounding it to a sweet £3m
lol

[djrem]

well i dont want to sell myself cheap..... so how about rounding it to a sweet £3m
lol

No thanks

[Barry123]

[djflipsaxo]

No thanks
Can get a virgin for less. x

lol
ok how about £2m

[djrem]

lol
ok how about £2m

How about £15, a bottle of wine and a take-away.
Now that we've learnt the kind of woman you are, we might as well have serious negotiations.

I never read my PMs, but feel free to send in a counter offer *hint hint* x

[djflipsaxo]

lol, ok but i get to choose the take away!

[djrem]

lol, ok but i get to choose the take away!

Wow.
That was easy.
T-minus a couple of days until i lose my V-plates lads :panic:

[djflipsaxo]

well done for getting train driver job, id love to do that who u work for and how u go about applying for it mate?:y:

[Adum]

i work for c2c (owned by national express). shoebury to fenchurch street.

my mates date works for them and told me to apply.

its quite hard getting in, you have loads of tests to do, psychometric test, medical, etc. the failure rate is very high. (out of 15 people doing the tests the same day as me, i was the only one to get through, luckily) and you have 4 months of traing which your have a test every week during this time, then a final 2 day assessment at the end. lol

its such a secure job though, so i would recommend applying if you can.

bare in mind though, you only have 2 attempts to do the psychometric tests. if you fail twice, you cannot apply to drive on any railway in the country, ever again.

[gouldy87]

sounds good working on the railways mate. im after a few ideas for a career as i want to get out of my trade really

[barrett130]

[Jazz]

Hmm... if so I might apply for that position too :P

[gouldy87]

[Saxo-Sammy]

[Penn]

1st line IT support, started 3 months ago and on 18k doing 40 hours a week.

Best thing i ever did was move out of retail!!

[gouldy87]

haha i would not admit to stuff like that in public forums mate and how the hell did you make 6 grand in 4 month? how did you get the gear in and bagged up and how did you build up your round so fast? shifting 1 to 2 key a week of snow you can make £1000 to £1500 quid a week profit but it takes a long time to build up around of regular customers at home in night clubs pubs etc.... takes a good few month just to get set up right. never mind getting the stuff getting it cut up right ( coke is nomally 30 to 35 percent pure the rest is pro plus, fete, paracetamol etc etc..) then bagging it all up and distributing all off the radar, it at least taskes 2 of you so the n you have to split your profits etc etc..... and that only works out at about £500 a week before any body asks no i have nothing to do with any drugs etc. i just no many things

[Pat_Vts]

when i was yr11 at skl quickest buck i made was selling £10 worth of cannabis to a year 8 boi who thought he was hard for £30

Studying computer science at uni and part time kitchen staff. I loathe the whole idea of uni and can't wait to get out... but with the way things are going, it's probably the best place for me at present.

[Saxo-Sammy]

bit of this bit of that ;)

[furiomike]

I work in missile warning and space tracking.

It's about £30,000 a year plus overtime, which is an extra £300 for every shift.

The shifts are 12 hours at either 8am-8pm or 8pm-8am, which can sound shit but it means 219 days off a year in theory.

Finishing work at 8am after a 12 hour shift isn't for everyone though because it screws your body clock up quite badly.

[Clouds_mate]

I doubt he would be cutting it and bagging it. At most he will of been spliting and weighting nothing else. 6k isnt a lot of money for selling if your in the right city/place.

You could probs make that in 4 month doing the run and bringing it back to the proper dealer from the city on the westside, not to the little boy supplying his boyfriends.

:clapping: well said.

To think i almost missed this...

First off, thanks for the compliment - it's been a while since i've been referred to as a "massive bellend".

Secondly, my comments were in jest. I work. After my engineering degree and post-grad law i practised as a barrister for 4.5 yrs (paying hugely more than my fair of tax), before moving to a Director post advising on the technical and legal aspects of manufacturing growth company acqusitions.

Thirdly, your records are nothing to be proud off. In fact your company is guilty of gross negligence allowing you to work 66 hours in 3 days, and 100+ hours in a week. It contravenes 1998 WTD and 1996 Employment Rights Act. You have 3 years to file a claim and you'd be looking at a four figure pay out.

So Gouldy, my unemployment friend, i'd like to actually thank you for coming...

PS I wasn't, at any stage, belittling those on benefits through misfortune - you should be commended for working so hard to find further employment.
PPS A friendly judge, Judge MacDuff ruled in 2006 that libellous comments on MB's are as valid as those printed in newspapers...

Apprentice in mechanical engineering, £4.77p/h, which is balls.

Might be adding a tig welding unit to my coarse, if your looking for good money, tig is it. The right place, with plenty of work your set. I know a couple of tig welders, £16p/h normal hours, £21ph overtime and £26 on sundays irrc...

Personally, i couldn't work in an office nor tesco and anything else where i have to mind my language and deal with idiots who aren't quite sure of arse from elbow.

My wage should goto about £8-9 p/h when qualified.

[djrem]

Im gonna be a drug dealer.
Cheers for all the hints and tips.
And they Saxo owners are all old people...

Yes - PM me.

[gouldy87]

oh and leckie, the stuff is cut up mate. coke is the drug i was reffering to. its gets cut up and only about 30 percent pure as i mentioned above. i used coke as am example as that seems to be the drug that you can make the most profit on.

cheers for the little boy comment btw

and also i i no my grammer isnt very good. i rush when i type things and dont check em.

[bullit]

lol @ gouldy

[gouldy87]

oh yes bullit highly amusing.

[bullit]

was reffering to asking help from johny after calling him bell lol

[Pat_Vts]

bullit ur a bellend

[gouldy87]

i was defending myself and explaining the situation regarding benefits and everyone was slating people on benefits. i was defending myself as ive only been unemployed a week and a half. if jonny had been a magistrate for so long etc then he is bound to no his stuff. im 21 and i no many things, but there is a hell of alot of stuff i dont no about. there is nothing wrong with admitting defeat and asking for help from someone older and wiser my friend

[bullit]

chill out lol your reading to much into what ive said. anyway...

and pat youve been reported

[potatopete]

He was/is a Barrister. Thought about reading the post?

[potatopete]

Just wanted to add that this thread is totally legendary!!
Taken me ages to read it all, and the majority of posts are well worth reading........a few aren't but you know who you are!

[Clouds_mate]

oh and leckie, the stuff is cut up mate. coke is the drug i was reffering to. its gets cut up and only about 30 percent pure as i mentioned above. i used coke as am example as that seems to be the drug that you can make the most profit on.

cheers for the little boy comment btw

and also i i no my grammer isnt very good. i rush when i type things and dont check em.

Firstly. I wasnt calling you a little boy btw I was reffering to little time drug dealers actually dealing in 1 or 2 grams. People that do the run as i mentioned. Take the drop off to people that deal to those dealers (who supply small amounts) They is some serious money trafficing the drugs around the UK. Hence my comment.

Secondly, you mention...

never mind getting the stuff getting it cut up right ( coke is nomally 30 to 35 percent pure the rest is pro plus, fete, paracetamol etc etc..) then bagging it all up and distributing all off the radar

as part of the profit the guy would be making. Thats why i said he wouldnt be doing it as you suggested. Especially for that type of profit. I dont think you will find mnay dealers in the uk that actually cut up the drugs and i dont mean the small dealers mixing it with stuff to give bigger bags ;)

[Pat_Vts]

chill out lol your reading to much into what ive said. anyway...

and pat youve been reported

i was joking lol

[Predator_R32]

jesus guys give it a rest lol

[gouldy87]

this getting abit daft now, yes i do read the posts

sorry leckie miss understanding, and i no many that work that way tbh and im not talking about little scally wags that deal in 1 or 2 grams btw . it gone abit off topic hasnt it? the first post i mentioned drugs in was in response to the post that said"i was a drug dealer for a few months" and responded "i would not mention that on a public forum mate" as comments like that could land someone in abit of hot water. i also wanted to no how the lad set up so quickly and made the cash he did in such a short time?
