    Don't you think its a bit mean to stereotype like that? At the end of the day these people are only doing their job in order to pay the bills.
    There are many things in life that will catch your eye, only a few will catch your heart. Pursue those.

    This thread is just an argument waiting to happen.

    The bus drivers around here are lovely, couldn't be more helpful.

    I think this thread just shows how ignorant some people can be.

    Kind of agree on bus drivers, either grumpy or far too cheerful!

    Worst I'm encountered was when I had to call the AA out, but all their guys were busy so they sent someone from a local garage instead. He made it quite clear several times that if it wasn't for me he'd be sat in the office drinking tea, and he refused to do a temporary repair (which a normal AA man would have done). All he seemed interested in doing was towing the car back to his garage and getting someone to look at it the next day. Luckily I eventually managed to get the car started (no thanks to him) and drove home. Of course, can't stereotype an entire profession based on one guy...

    In case you hadn't noticed, this is the vent board, ie a place to have a whinge. Nothing to do with moneysaving!
  • My pet hate is people who love and live with computers. Whether they work in 'tek-sport' or not.

    They almost always have bad breath, bad teeth and IF they have partners, they too are equally ugly.


    BTW Rda this isnt a moneysaving thread.....so you can unpick your g-string......lol..

    Hey, I'm a bus driver and I'm miserable.......when passengers get on and abuse me, other than that I smile at people and I'm polite.

    You will find everyone, no matter where you go can be the same. I shop all over the place and find some really nasty so and so's behind the counter.

    As Chika said, try not to stereotype :D
    Please do not feed the Trolls!

    My doctor's receptionist is an absolute star. The only time she may come across as harsh or obtrusive is when she gets muppetts that think they should be seen there and then ... for a cold!

    Anybody want to start a thread about the worst type of people?

    Has anybody thought that there will be people on here who are in these professions, like nealallen? You could be really offending people.
