Strikes

It's ok bro I'm getting a second job. Training as a pilot for BA so should be all good. A few nurses on the course too.

 

Didn’t the Barristers get a 15% rise. Does that come from the public purse?

 

I don't know if you are joking or not...but if you are training to be a pilot that sounds pretty cool to me.

I use to work with someone that was a helicopter pilot, I don't know if he was bipolar or what, but his mood swings were extreme, so fook knows how he got a licence to fly.

 

Just kidding mate. I always wanted a pilots licence and would've forked out the £3k to do it back in the day. But there was no way I could afford the 50+ flight hours you have to do annually to maintain it.

 

I think it's public sector.

 

Ah yeah, I remember something about them having to record their number of hours. I'm not very good with jetlag, so I'd be useless as a long haul pilot, I'd probably dump everyone in the Atlantic in a mood swing.

If MI5 are watching this is a joke.

 

I got a payrise this year. 5%, i was happy enough considering my delivery wasn't as good as it could have been

 

What i would do is give those on the lower end of the scales payrises RMT, Nurses whatever. Those in the middle a smaller one. But my understanding its more than just pay but also the conditions they want to put in place.

After all the money the government are spaffing i don't blame them. Normally i would be against the strikes but after seeing the existing government take the piss i'm in full agreement with them.

 

Didn't know you were a midwife mate.

 

I'm not.

The butthurt are effectively asking the government to make the country recession-exempt and fund everything for them. If people are struggling it’s not due to the lack of opportunity awarded to them by living in this country, nobody forced them to make their choices in life.

Let’s give the postman a 30% pay rise because he is a complete ***** but deserves the same pay as a Project Manager, because he has a **** boiler at home.

The U.K. are the best in the world at moaning.

 

love you too tel.

How you been?

 

I've not had any mail for a while, I reckon postie is seeing my name on it and burning it to keep warm.

 

I’ve been good Bob. ****ing furiously to keep myself warm, probably lost 4 stone so far. Gonna be a long winter.

 

I’ve not seen our postie since the summer, she must have died during that heat wave.

 

There was a general agreement between union and rail company, a deal could've been done. Government just needs to green light it. But Harper comes in and insists provision of driver-only trains be added, thereby ensuring strikes go ahead. Like you say it's not just about the pay.

Stephen Barclay went into a meeting with the head of the Royal College of Nurses and just sat there like a tub of lard.

 

Train driving has to be one of the lowest skilled, laziest occupations out there tbh. They should be grateful that they have a job at all.

 

better than going to gym. Keeping slim and working those forearms

 

One of my neighbours is a train driver, he has to navigate a train between Queens Park and Harrow on the Bakerloo Line

He is so badly paid he can barely afford to buy his house, have at least two foreign holidays a year, run three cars,, and maintain a wife who lives like a WAG and two daughters who want and get everything they ask for, AND a season ticket for Arsenal (does that prove he is thick and underpaid or just thick, answers on a post card)
