j4ckos mate

to be honest after a truly awful day at work, i can sort of see how people get into it .




it beings me to tears almost seeing other people get a dinner hour whilst i was in at 7.30 till 6pm. my customers are arseholes and my manager has been off all week (on holiday) not to mention the six weks off sick in the summer he had

plus we are living in a squat or so it seems since the leak (see previous post)
changing mortage and on top off that making plans to re-model the bathroom.


you come home shouting at the kids (who havent done anything wrong)


i can see how people can get into it, or is it just 'not your night son" and you turn to these things to help you out?

I find releasing tension via sharing my thoughts on a car forum much more beneficial than turning to some mystical being

ScoTTyB

If you want to talk to invisible people then by all means, go ahead

fast bloke

Maybe changing your mortgage via some mystical being you found on a car forum would be the ultimate release then........... until the solicitors get involved anyway

You certainly question the meaning of life when dealing with their overseas call centres

Help me Jeebus!

I get to do it every day. Eventually you learn a strange version of colloquial Northern Irish Indian.... usually goes like this

Me - "Here wee lad, do you speak Belfastish?
Call centre operative " Oh No Sir, we only speak Eengleesh"
Me - "Well wee lad, yeeno, I'm from Belfast and only speak Belfastish, so wid the be any chance of having this conversation with one of those taffy underwriters in Cardiff?"
CCO " A hundred million apologies sir, but no-one knowa what language those taffys speak....... I'll put you through and you can take your chances"


........ greensleeves..........



....... more greensleeves..........


brrr brrrrr

" Alloaw, you arrrrrre speaking to Daifaid, oow can I elp you today, lffg gff cclcclff, lffcg,lflflf clannffll"

Me "erm - Can I speak to that nice chap in Bangladesh again?"

Prayer has been scientifically proven not to work and may even be detrimental to the health of the person being prayed for.

For all those believers in sky fairies, look away now:


Prayer does not heal the sick, study finds - Times Online

Suresh - if you BELIEVE in faeries and ting as much as I BELIEVE in my one true God (horsepower) then surely our pathetic time here on earth will have more meaning and feel more validated? (well, that and adopt a 'try to be nice...' approach - esp to despicable strangers).

Top notch bonus would be to actually come back as a Shire Horse, majestic, proud and with lovely legs (but I know I will just rust away as most other organic matter...! D

fast bloke

Horsepower is nothing without control

Diesel

If you think that traction control is your Messiah then so be it. I do not worship false Gods

Hamilton agrees!

fast bloke

Mk2 Escort is my Messiah. Proper horsepower, proper control




(and Frys Turkish Delight.... but that is probably off topic)

Diesel

Now listen, I had a right problem with a farmer in a Mk2 1300 escort a few weeks ago on a track (and me with AYC. AWD, 380 bhp etc) but bringing Fry's into it wont help your case (or your care!!!)! Lets leave the chocolate out please and keep this fair and on topic?!

fast bloke

What was the problem - did he keep passing you in the corners?

Religion does not help a bad day turning into a good one. It may help to cope with your bad day. Religion can inject euphoria into your system, giving you a boost or tranquility, to help you get through your bad day, and hope for a good one the next day.

BTW, religion is not the only drug or a crutch in moments of dispair. There are many other ways and self-therapies to go through cr@p, without tearing your hair off. For example, go back home, open a bottle of whiskey, and batter the keyboard over NSR, and regain your mental sanity Will sort your head out



PS:

^ Don't worry about driving others insane

Diesel

No, dont be silly, but for a 1300 (verified - got me magnifying glass out) he did very well (although he mostly offroaded for the twisty bits/ditch hugging - whatever they call the options on 13" £12 wheels)!!!

Good and bad (God and the Devil) are within each of us. No need for a "religeon" or "bible" for guidance IMO, although seems many people, need help.

Sonic'

nope not for me either

this year is probably upto now a far worse year than last year, and that was pretty bad, religion for me personally doesnt help one bit at all

Not really sure what does to be honest, as I'm still trying to figure that one out
