Either the headphones on my discman are going (Four days after I bought the damn things) or the discman itself is knacked. Either way - dammit!

Bloody drivers today..I HATE people with big posh cars who dunno how to fuckin drive!! had some dick on the way home, comes up and starts tail gating me (on dual carriageway, where im doin just under 70 on the outside cos I can see the rounabout comin up so im not exactly puttin my foot down, and I need to stay in that lane) so clever dick here overtakes me on the inside, well, TRIES, cos of course hes met with the queue of traffic now, so then cuts in front of me. what the fuck was the point? Oh yeah! hes in a big Jag! :rolleyes: i overtook him once i got to the roundabout anyway. where he was met with me waving a certain finger. Nob.

And some bint this mornin on the motorway, fuckin comes speedin up overtakin everyone, on the inside (again! can ya not see theres 3 lanes love?), then jumps in front of me cutting me off, only to come off at the next junction anyway, coulda just stayed as she was, not weavin about tryin to cause accidents.. fuckin nobber. I wish people would just learn how to drive on the soddin motorway, then maybe it wuldnt be like wacky bloody races!!

</road rage>

Thats exactly why they send you on those courses - not to help you but to piss you off into taking the first thing that gets you off the dole, and hence makes the unemployment stats look better. In my case however it had the opposite effect, I was determined to carry on taking the money just to stick it to them.

I only left when a job I actually wanted came along. If I'd taken the first crap shelf stacking thing I'd probably still be doing that now, by sticking it out (and doing volunteer work in the area I wanted to go into) I'm now far better off.

If I were you I'd just grin and bear it, then do voluntary/unpaid work in the field you actually want to go in while the dole are none the wiser.

:lol:

Nearly a classy accident in Brum this morning, dozy bugger deciding at the last minute he doesn't want to leave the roundabout just yet and cuts up the poor bugger beside him who wants to do just that. I think some people ought to learn how to drive full stop, never mind on motorways. DON'T get me started again on BMW Man. :P

BMW woman just tailgated me then bawled by at some reckless speed ten minutes ago. Gave her a good flash. :eyes: Caught up at some templights and she pipped her reverse lights at me. Flashed her back and grinned through her mirror. Last word. I'm such a bastard.

This thread is becoming very...'adult' :o :lol: :P

Seriously though, I completely agree about drivers. The majority of people can't drive for shit and it pisses me off no end. Pet hate.

What has pissed me off today though? My mobile network has been arsing about, so I can't send messages or make calls even though I have credit. GRRRR! :x

Pots and kettles spring to mind.....there are three lanes on the motorway as you said, so if this "bint" had room to travel up the inside overtaking everybody, that would indicate that everybody she overtook (or rather undertook,and this evidently includes you) also need to learn how to drive on the soddin' motorway.......and STOP LANE HOGGING!!!

Fair enough for you to say in your super Lotus. It takes me 5 minutes to change lanes in my 70bhp Skoda diesel!
