LeazesMag 0 Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 A big gripe of mine is Asian shop keepers, mentioned this before, who can speak better English than most of the customers in their shop who speak Hurdu when there's just three of you there. They could be saying anything. It is rude I don't care how you look at it. Cue Renton and the HF saying what about English in Spain blah blah... spot on. Should throw them into Robs muslim submarine and make them speak Urdu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People who act like they are something when they are with friends but then wouldn't dare try anything with anyone when alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeazesMag 0 Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Knackers who walk around streets with big old fashioned headphones over the ears so they can't hear you tooting at them when they walk straight over the road Taxi Drivers People who disagree with me People who dance with their reflection in shop windows [i kid you not, and I won't expand as someone will call me "racist"] People who walk around in sunglasses in winter People who say Louise Taylor writes shit yet are infatuated with her articles Blokes who are employed in the "gents" and offer to polish your shoes for you on the way out, or whatever they are supposed to be doing in there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig 6284 Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 I must ignore 90% of texts. Crap jokes and observations. If you think you're a comedian, take it to twitter/facebook/toontastic where people who want to read it can find you. Don't ring me up. I'm not talking dodgy jokes, I'm on about people taking forever to/not even bothering reply to texts about organising things etc. OK I'll bite. People who moan like fuck because someone hasn't replied to a text they've sent them. See it happening all the time at work. Fucking hell, if you want an immediate answer out of someone, fucking ring them! If they can spend all day texting me total fucking shite, they can text back when it's important. Aye but if you want an answer out of someone, make a bloody call man. Texting's alright if you're not arsed about an immediate reply. Same with email FFS. There's a bloke at work who regularly emails me to ask something and 30 seconds later is stood behind me asking if I've read the email. Fuck's sake, why did he even waste his time typing!!!

Holden McGroin 4793 Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 For the record, most Taxi drivers (that I know) have as much interest in conversation as most of you. We have usually been sitting without a job for half an hour or so and are well into the latest chat on Talksport or Five Live or even sometimes The Legends (another pet hate as it happens). Anyway, we would love it if you didnt make shitty conversation, particularly the mind numbing what time did you start / finish etc and just leave us in peace to enjoy the radio. It is unfortunately a known fact that "slavering on" with a punter usually leads to a higher tip. My advice to you all is explain within the first few seconds how you cant afford a tip and silence will accompany you on the rest of your journey. On a side topic CT, whats your thoughts on tipping? I stopped tipping the day you wrote that taxi drivers make £40k a year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christmas Tree 3997 Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 No thoughts on it as such. Being a tradition in this business along time just like the food industry. Why people choose to tip one sector and not another is odd and probably can only be put down to tradition. It's not like you give the local corner shop keeper a couple of extra quid? As Stevie said yesterday it can be a 20p round up or a 6 or 7 quid round up. Had both yesterday. I would say 2 in 10 jobs approx don't tip.

Christmas Tree 3997 Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 There is also this misconception that the fayre goes to some big boss and a taxi driver is on a limited wage. People often after cash has been exchanged will hand you pound and say "this ones for you". Also at one point Taxi driving used to be a 2nd job to help make ends meet. The people using taxis would have been wealthy and maybe that's where it all kicked off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just give us a blowey under the desk for fuck's sake. You can't put all lasses in the same bracket some are quite funny and interesting you know However, I know the type of lass you're on about in the work place. I used to work with this lass called Christine who was from down the coast right, and every day I'd have a bet on with the lad opposite me by what time she'd mention her weight watchers points. As the weeks and months went by my spread bet was down to like 10 past 9, and we'd like start at 9am. Oh dear bless her. Was a canny lass actually just boring, she had a massive arse too but would wear proper tight pants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
