  1. Just havin a larf guv . 😀
  2. And they still needed a push from a diesel . 😎
  3. I've lost count of how many times my Ford rally jacket has been worn since I bought it in 1990 . 😀
  4. I can fully understand belonging to trade guilds if you are intending to move jobs for better prospects/interest/money etc. But my case was just internal promotion of a job I'd been doing for the last 25 years , it just meant going to chargehand level instead of just spanner twiddler , so no amount of letters after my name would have made a scrap of difference . as it turned out eventually I was glad I failed as it did involve a lot paper shuffling and that's something I don't think I would have enjoyed .
  5. Interviewing and telling the truth , I interviewed for an internal promotion , one question was , Are you a member of XYZ guild ? At he time this was a body that covered the field of work I was in and membership could be obtained by a years in the job and pay a fee , not having to sit and pass any sort of exam . My answer was no I'm not , why I was asked , I see no benefit to the actual work I do that paying for a membership that has no direct effect on my work as unnecessary was my answer . A mate who also was applying was a member . Guess who didn't get promoted . 😎
  6. And don't forget the Revolutionary war quote , Donald Trump made an awkward blunder during his speech on Independence Day, praising the army, which he said “took over the airports” from the British during the revolutionary war in the late 1700s.
  7. Which begs the question of just who are they going to fight ??? Surely you can only have a 'war' when two sides want to fight , the non Trumpers wont need to fight anyone as they will be happy with the result . And even 'millions' spread over the USA will leave them pretty thin on the ground .
