Imagine all the counselling you need for the suicides though?
And it's a pretty droll job. Someone has to do it.
( hoifbjifbef, Tue 9 Jun 2009, 8:23, archived)

dear dear
it must be quite a drole job, but so is a binman or a drainage engineer or a policeman or a salesman however all will generally net you well under 45000
(McDazzle Knows not what he does, Tue 9 Jun 2009, 8:39, archived)

Droll.

Yeah, I was just concentrating on that particular post.
OH HAI BINKY.

OH HAI i went drinking wine last night and now i want to be in bed.
Alcohol: it's bad for you, kids. And expensive.

Yes, it is.
I drank all the wines on Sunday evening. Bad times.

None of those are generally targets for terrorist activities either or have to deal with a variety of emergency situations.
Or working in darkened holes, sat down for long periods of time in a small space doing repetitive actions.

What makes you qualified to be the Supreme Judge of Salaries anyway?

haha
sounds like an average night round your place, im not qualified, im just annoyed.
(McDazzle Knows not what he does, Tue 9 Jun 2009, 8:48, archived)

Zing!
I'm just saying, although it might not look like it takes a lot of talent to sit in a cabin and control a tube train, I am sure there's a lot of training and preparation involved.

There's also the fact that the tube system is at least semi-autonomous so it's not really our tax money that is paying these people's wages. Not like binman and other local authority workers. Are you annoyed that footballers make millions of pounds to kick a piece of leather about? Not so much.
( hoifbjifbef, Tue 9 Jun 2009, 8:51, archived)

as for footballers
hell yeah its rediculous! but thats the free market and they are not holding london to ransom to get a pay rise. Lots of people are struggling to hold on to their jobs
(McDazzle Knows not what he does, Tue 9 Jun 2009, 8:54, archived)

You're being ridiculous.
I worked in London when they were striking last year and the world didn't end. You really don't and shouldn't have a say in what tube drivers, or anyone else gets paid. Not unless it comes directly out of taxpayer's money.

What about all the suicides they have to deal with?

( Bats, Tue 9 Jun 2009, 8:23, archived)

You go do it for less money, then, you spastic.

Find another way then, and don't depend on a public service.

(McDazzle Knows not what he does, Tue 9 Jun 2009, 8:46, archived)

Then I suggest you and your fellow Londoners go outside and look upwards.
That big shiny thing is the sun, around which the world turns, not you and your minor travel gripes.

It's a shame you're not in London during the strikes.
We could all climb into your folds of flab and zorb to work.
