mitre 583 Posted Friday at 18:41 Report Share Posted Friday at 18:41 Best to get to your place a good 20 minutes early and lest you made a effort and also it shows you can get to a place on time you remember when you was a youngster you had to get to school on time it's teaches you to get on time to places Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Everyone knew the score . I'll be leaving here / passing your house at whatever time . If you aren't here, or there waiting , I'll just carry on without you. I must confess to being late for fishing once , it was 24th November 1991 , and my mate still gives me a hard time to this day . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moochersways 874 Posted Friday at 20:35 Report Share Posted Friday at 20:35 Yeah it can be annoying especially as really I like to be packed up and done by 2.30/3 at the latest when the days are shorter....and the problem is it's mainly big hedges I do so need the hand apart from his lateness he's a good lad gets stuck in and won't go back on my ground behind my back.....he just doesn't seem to be organised rushes around in the morning trying to get all his gear loaded chaos Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mel b 5,010 Posted Saturday at 06:17 Report Share Posted Saturday at 06:17 This thread has really got me thinking . Being late , being disrespectful, accepting low standards , is all part of the way society is changing for the worse .it's just getting less. Being late was embarrassing, Being a long term dole dosser was embarrassing, not standing on your word was embarrassing, but all these things are becoming the norm , and we're being conditioned ( by time and pressure), to accept them . Fifteen years ago , no matter what it took , we got the bins collected , you'd finish your round if it f***ing killed you . It was only bins , but it was a matter of personal pride for every bloke on the truck. These days , nobody gives a f**k . The blokes don't care , the supervisors and managers don't care , and the councillors don't care( except at election time). Our country has been degraded , with the help of , traitorous and greedy politicians, immigrants , and a piss weak welfare system . 7 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Aussie Whip 4,380 Posted Saturday at 07:11 Report Share Posted Saturday at 07:11 I hate unreliable, always late people, especially girlfriends, potential partners and I've broken off relationships with women in the past for being like that. If they disrespect, disregard me they can go f themselves. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'd disagree with many teachers , and the left wing nonsense that they spout. I'd say that the decent people of the country are waking up , but the feckless are just getting away with more and more. At some point it'll have to stop . It just can't carry on the way it is at the moment. When the money eventually runs out , those feckless long term doley types will just starve to death , but the decent folks , that know how to get up on time and go do a hard day's graft , will survive. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Our country has been degraded , with the help of , traitorous and greedy politicians, immigrants , and a piss weak welfare system . It’s the completely understandable consequence of having to keep lowering our social bar to accommodate tens of millions of the 3rd world ! ……like, that’s not even an off the cuff remark, it’s totally true. Have a look back at old footage of these people slouching around their 3rd world shit holes and then look back at footage from Britain in a similar time, we have imported that ! The pollution of our young people, all they have ever known is this low bar stuff……no coincidence that going to university got made so easy any c**t could do it, and that’s been the story of everything. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We are all lucky enough to know, interact with, be it in real life or on this little digital world, genuine good lads who all basically want similar things and hold fairly similar views despite differences. But here’s a thing, I don’t think it has anything to do with “the feckless”…..this situation got made and it can be unmade. However, at the next elections millions of perfectly good, genuine, decent lads are going to go out and vote for exactly the same people that made this situation !!…….figure that shit out and we may just fix it. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I must confess that I'm totally torn between farage and Lowe. I want Lowe. He's saying exactly what I'm thinking , but that's tempered by the fact that , at the moment, he hasn't got a prayer. I honestly believed that Nigel farage was the man to set the country straight , but just look what the f****r has gone and done . On one hand , I can waste (at the moment)my support on Rupert Lowe, or , I can throw my support behind farage , and just hope that he does what he keeps promising, and just hope that he's doing what he's doing , so that he can get himself into a position where he can improve things. For me, immigration isn't about skin colour , it's about standards , and behaviour. Let's be brutally honest, the vast majority of immigrants , are little more than savages . I have no problem whatsoever with genuine refugees , but I have a f***ing huge problem with some somali pirate that makes his way here on a dinghy, then goes on to rape and steal , while I'm paying for the animal to live in a hotel.
