Bloddy DLR!!!
charming this weekend when i need to go down to London docklands, they decide to have construction on the tracks to improve it

...pricks

thankfully there's gonna be a shuttle service, but talk about annoying
(smathels left-wing not feckin' chicken wing, Wed 20 May 2009, 11:19, archived)
Yeah, CUNTS
How DARE they improve their infrastructure! ESPECIALLY when you want to use it! The outrage. I'd write to your local paper if I were you.
(I helped save b3ta! Theoban What of it, Wed 20 May 2009, 11:21, archived)
Although you've probably missed this what with the whole Paris thing
but they've stopped calling it "Engineering Works" and now call it "Planned Improvements" as if changing the words makes it better that they are fucking up your day.

Here's a thought for the 3am beardy-stroking meeting marketing cuntpuffins that charged half-a-million quid for the "slogan image change concept" - if you'd PLANNED, you wouldn't need fucking IMPROVEMENTS, would you now?

Can I rant about the fact the Victoria Line is going on strike from 9pm for 24 hours?

(I helped save b3ta! Jobe, Wed 20 May 2009, 11:41, archived)
Fuck, yeah.
Paid 40 grand a year for a 35 hour week, 50 days holiday a year and they aren't allowed to work for more than an hour and a half without a break and they're STILL striking?

If I was still in London I'd hunt the cunts down and disembowel them with the blunt spoon.

I'm in London, but I only have a plastic teaspoon.
It could take some time...
(I helped save b3ta! thealternativefact, Wed 20 May 2009, 11:45, archived)
the longer the better
make them suffer.

(I helped save b3ta! thealternativefact, Wed 20 May 2009, 11:47, archived)
From what I can gather, they're striking now because someone was sacked because
he breached safety procedures. He opened the doors on the wrong side of the tube, then denied making a mistake when he was in his disciplinary. Apparently this is all revolving aruond safety issues. I get the Victoria line every day, and have seen no problems. If it was that unsafe, they'd do some "planned improvement" and sort it out.

I might go on strike just for the fun of it. Seems the thing to do.
(I helped save b3ta! Jobe, Wed 20 May 2009, 11:50, archived)
Oh jesus christ
Everybody makes mistakes. Quite frankly, if you jumped off the tube when all you could see in front of you was wall, then maybe you shouldn't be using it unattended
(I helped save b3ta! Methylene Blue - electrohead, Wed 20 May 2009, 11:53, archived)
Picturing this is making me chuckle.

(I helped save b3ta! Jobe, Wed 20 May 2009, 11:55, archived)
It won't just be that.
That'll be his final thing. You need 5 or 6 major disciplinary errors to even get close to sacking on LU

in any case, I suspect the issue here isn't the error (which anyone could do, although given the Viccy line is semi-auto that's ALL he has to fucking do) but that he lied about it. Deserves all he fucking gets. Own up to your mistakes. Fucking coward.
(I helped save b3ta! the mighty badger Aphrodite, on a bar stool, by your side, Wed 20 May 2009, 12:11, archived)
Ah so it's a rebranded 'shit the track is bent, get a hammer Geoff' instead of proper improvements
I feel slightly bad about shouting at smathels now. Sorry smathels.
(I helped save b3ta! Theoban What of it, Wed 20 May 2009, 11:42, archived)
On the DLR it's probably something to do with the Olympics as it goes.
but, yeah, you've got the general gist.

annoying - a word used to signify that something has caused annoyance

(I helped save b3ta! manolith hooray for me, Wed 20 May 2009, 11:21, archived)
I don't want to talk about annoying.
I want to talk about The Apprentice.

I'm more than a little excited about it tonight. I hope Howard gets to be PM and that someone physically hurts Debra.

I will not be doing it again. What a shower of bellends all those people are.

they're using reality tv to pick prime ministers now?

(I helped save b3ta! manolith hooray for me, Wed 20 May 2009, 11:23, archived)
I've still never watched it.
I think this is a result for me. I normally go out of my way to watch TV shows that annoy me.

It's not a patch on Super Sweet Sixteen, but still quite good.
I am an armchair business expert. Think there's a career in that?

I'd like to think so.

they're all fucktards. not one contestant on that has ever actually done anything prior to going on, or had any real ability, because otherwise they'd have been able to get where they wanted without going on that program. It's the business equivalent of X-factor. Except that it's OK to prostitute the media because that's essentially how the media works. It's not really very clever to do it in an actual business environment. Things tend to go to shit very rapidly.

We shouldn't be fucking encouraging this. We should be culling them for the general good.

I like fucktards and media prostitution and making people do things in an artificial environment that they wouldn't dream of doing elsewhere. It's why I also like Big Brother.
(I helped save b3ta! LimeyTreat Bitch. Lover. Child. Mother. Sinner. Saint., Wed 20 May 2009, 11:38, archived)
I know, and that's fine
but this isn't an artifical enviroment in the end, the winner actually gets a job. And it's making people think that the qualites displayed by those sub-neanderthal IQ arsefezs are actually valued in a business environment.

I am on the phone to Transport for London
They have written me a cheque for £9.42
for a claim for £20.00

I wonder how they reached their number.
(I helped save b3ta! WormuIus, Wed 20 May 2009, 11:38, archived)
Hopefully they can tell me.

(I helped save b3ta! WormuIus, Wed 20 May 2009, 11:39, archived)
Apparently my claim is made as a pro-rata claim against the cost of my original season ticket
not the cost of the tickets I bought to replace it.
(I helped save b3ta! WormuIus, Wed 20 May 2009, 11:41, archived)
Maybe now they can tell me why I am not allowed to make a futher claim for a second ticket.
Their letter says I am entitled to 2 claims per year.
(I helped save b3ta! WormuIus, Wed 20 May 2009, 11:42, archived)
Because some fucker would claim every day if they could
Places like Unilever get people writing in very often, for vouchers. If they allowed it, they'd go fucking bust.
(I helped save b3ta! Methylene Blue - electrohead, Wed 20 May 2009, 11:47, archived)
apparently becuase I left my card at home and wasn't able to return the same day
this counts as two claims.

Tossers

(I helped save b3ta! Methylene Blue - electrohead, Wed 20 May 2009, 11:54, archived)
At least they processed my claim quickly and had reasonably sensible answers.
I was misled by a lady that worked for South Eastern Trains.
Next time I will get my advice from Transport for London.

'Dear Unilever
