Motorists Favour Driving And Smoking Ban

Complain to your local council office about them being called officer then if you dislike the name/job title given to them,

Most parking attendants (or whatever they are called now) are called bastards a far better term for anyone paid for (or working on the behalf of) councils

Everyone ?

Down to the road sweep who cleans the crap up for you ? And the tradesmen who repair the homes etc,

No roadsweepers here and a big yes on the other one ,just what sort of idiot puts a plunger he has used in a bog (despite being told its the sewer blocked not the bog itself) in your sink dripping water (with crap floating in it) all over the floor on the way to it ?

I cannot see why they are employed except they are incredibly cheap

It took them 3 years to discover a valve had been fitted the wrong way around in the central heating for christs sake ,the sewer has had over ten cameras down it even an idiot like me says its cheaper to fix it than employ a company to jet it every fortnight

The list is long mate

The trouble is no one is ever punished for employing them ,public floggings of mayors and execs should change that

You remind me of an old boy i had the displeasure of meeting when i was a council worker. He winged and winged that i did not repair his roof in the correct manner. He reported me on many an occasion to my boss.

 

LOOK, LOOK, the stain is still on my ceiling, he ranted, come every rainy day we had to go and see him, LOOK, LOOK still getting in.

 

OK i said to him, i will go back to the depot and get a special tool to use. I went back to the depot, got some paint from the stores, returned to the address and painted the stain in the corner of the room,

There you go i said, that will show any more rain coming thru. The stupid old sod took it in, The stain was there from the leak before. HA HA

 

Do you think i should have painted the full ceiling for him

Your tarring everyone with the same brush. And please dont forget, its the bloke behind the desk that has the last word, the tradesman/woman reports back and then its out of their hands as to what happens next.

First off, I don't smoke, gave it up years ago. But I now fish with a guy who does, and we go in his truck. He lights up while driving. I open my side window, he opens his side window, and he tends to swerve a bit while lighting up. A bit disconcerting, but I have got used to it (almost)

 

So, yes, it can be distracting.

You could get around that by lighting up for him Den if you were concerned ,think what it would be like if it was a churchwarden pipe he was smoking ,you would be crapping yourself everytime he reached for the vestas

Or one of thosd foreign hooka? Hubble bubble pipes propped up on the dash ,that would be a trip to remember

That fag isnt that worrying now is it (wink)

You want to hear the rest Dave? he also pops open a beer now and then, almost always a can of red bull, and opens a burger box and eats that with a bag of chips resting on the dash. Oh yes, one other thing, he rarely uses his seat belt!

 

As you say, the fag isn't that worrying.....................apart from the risk of cancer?

They'll be telling us next it's not safe to roll one whilst driving....................pffft
