How to tell a Kid from a Grownup

"ka-a-log" Ah, thats VERY funny!
Times square's no longer there, in fact when I was last there in Jan-Feb, the Maplins was sandwiched between a closed down "PC World" & another empty unit.
Sadly, Maplins seemed to attract the scumbag element, I had a guy at the Stockport one spit on me when I didnt give him a refund, so grapped him by the scruff of the neck & belt & "guided" (i.e THREW!) him through the doors, got a warning for that, nice to know your employer backs you up, eh?
I eventually left the company, when, after a pretty full-on fisticuffs fight with 3 shoplifters, I asked the Regional Manager for a Security Guard & said I really wasnt happy dealing with incidents like this, he replied "That's shop work for you!?!" I told him that wasnt a good enough answer & resigned. The next day two of my guys were threatened with a switchblade, again the Regional Manager wasnt bothered!

Bloody hell, That sounds like Warrington, and people wonder about my user name :D
It makes you wonder where all these scrotes come from doesnt it? More to the point, why haven't they been chemically castrated?

You get riff-raff here to, just not of the same calibre :D A growl usually sends them on their way.

What are you doing now then, work wise?
 
Hi, Temper.
Ive just left Sainsburys where I was working as a Nightshift Manager, but to be honest nights really didnt agree with me, all I did was work & sleep, and, although I finished Friday morning til Sunday night, all I did was sleep all weekend, no life.
So, TECHNICALLY, I suppose Im unemployed but Im pretty sensible with money, Ive got afew quid in the bank, have worked all my life since being 16 (Im 36 now) dont have a family to support, so im doing some serious thinking about what to do next. Id like a change from "normal" retail, but I DO enjoy dealing with customers, especially the ones that need & are grateful for your help & expertise.
Ive had one interview for a Sales Mgrs job for a Vehicle leasing company who seem pretty interested, plus thats Mon-Fri 9-5 & Ive just applied for the MOD Police, thats what I really fancy doing, so maybe I'll just use my time off to work on fitness & potter about the house doing all those jobs that Ive never had time to complete before.
PLUS for the first time EVER, Ive got some time to actually enjoy Christmas. I went to the European market in St Annes Square, Manchester last night & had afew mugs too many of hot mulled wine. Very nice. (Hic!)
 
When I did my 50-Miler in Scouts, we opted for the canoe version. 50 miles, 5 days, taking it easy and cleaning up along the way. 14 bags of trash later...
 
Best storries I've got are about my siblings.
We were headed to a restaraunt and there was a guy smoking there. The first thing my 6 year old brother does is walk over tell the guy that he's gonna die soon because of the cigarette. We then proceed to have lunch, and we leave about the same time as the guy. As he walks out, he throws out the butt and my little brother looks at him, points to the butt, and then tells him to pick it up. The guy was in the process of walking off without doing this and my little brother gets mad... he ends up walking over to the guy and punching him in the balls.

Then there's my 5 y.o. sister who lectured someone for 15 minutes on littering.

The most I've done is thrown a half used, still burning cigarette back in someones car.

:thumbup: Cool!

I have taken a cigarette out of someone's mouth on the subway and stubbed it out on their forhead. The look they had was priceless :D
