I think Victoria line drivers are only qualified to operate lifts
elsewhere.
Push buttons to open and close the doors, as I read on a Westinghouse
signalling website!

I never realised this group was as ignorant as Conor, but now I have
learnt just how stupid you lot are. Of course if you're ever in a tube
train that has the lights go out and stop in the middle of nowhere, you'll
all know what to do. (Won't you.)

That wasn't meant to be serious, Clive... just quoting an article about the
current ATO system, and the planned future improvements, mentioned in a
different thread.

No answer there then. I will answer it for you. You do nothing.


Why should I? Not my problem. No one forces anyone to go into
any form of job in this country. If you chose to go into a job knowing
the pay and conditions don't bloody whinge about it.



Moaning appears to be a full time occupation for you.


Ah , the irony of that statement )

Im very happy doing my job. ive been doing it for 22 years. Thats a
concept
you wont be able to understand.


I can understand it. You aspire to nothing and can't do anything else.
You're
quite happy to plod along doing the same old thing until you retire.
Nothing
wrong with that , but don't think that gives you some sort of
salt-of-the-earth
self righteousness. It doesn't.

Im proud to be a train driver, im proud to be a trade unionist. Thats
something else you wont be able to understand.


Sure I can. When you want a better deal you don't go out , expend a bit
effort and look for one yourself, far easier to blackmail your
employers
to give you a better deal with the threat of industrial action , like a
spoilt
teenager having a go at his parents Thats all the RMT is about anyway.

So, you can moan, groan, whinge, whine and threaten. Were here, were not
going away, so get used to it.


Really? Perhaps you should take a ride on the DLR sometime and play
spot the
driver.

Have you considered councilling, theres obviously something wrong with you.
You dont care about this group of people you dont care about that group of
people, i think this may well stem from a lack of self respect. There are
people out there able to help you.

Anyway enough said. I will leave you to rage on. Just one last thing, it
couldnt be that what really annoys you is that LU drivers [im not one, nor
am i in the RMT] earn more than you. Yes i reckon that could be it.

See you on the picket line brother.

Regards
Clyde
