AsimButtHitsASix Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Was on nightshift last week and sleeping pattern still a bit all over the place so only really fell asleep about half six this morning. Didnae bother me too much as I was on the backshift. Then the absolute melter I work with phoned me up at half nine to say his computer wasn't working. I asked him why he didn't phone the IT Helpdesk but he said I was usually quite good with computers so he'd try me first. Cunt. Never got back to sleep. Also I know fuck all about computers. I'm just the youngest person who works here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably my least favourite thing about staying here. I worked in Rochdale for a short time. "Job's a good'un" was funny as first but after the 100th time it got on my nerves. They also have the opinion that the entirety of Scotland is a lawless bog. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milton75 Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 I just say no, fuck all they can do. That's a fair point. The automatic check-outs don't give you an option though.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a taxi driver asking me about Scotland at the weekend, and despite spending his life driving through Bolton town centre he is under the impression that everywhere in Scotland is a bit dull. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weirdcal Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 I'm not keen on square sausage in a fried breakfast. I like my square sausage in a roll, with a tattie scone and fried egg, but I don't like it on a plate for some reason. If I'm having sausages in a fried breakfast, I like links, ideally something herby like a lincolnshire style sausage. I reckon I could eat both fried and scrambled (and possibly poached, as was the case this morning) in a breakfast, but I guess it would be overkill. I need a lot of mushrooms. I've picked up the toast and butter thing too. Too much time spent in hotels South of the border. I had a fried slice in Manchester a few weeks ago too. The square is for resting the egg on so it doesnt mix with the beans (the white that is, runny yolk n beans is allowed)A good few links, decent unsmoked bacon.Mushrooms are a must. Black pudding and haggis are also needed. Hash browns (as long as they're done right) are a good replacement for tattie scones if none avail.Sadly i cant get tattie scones, square sausage, decent bacon or breakfast haggis here.

Aidan Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 They also exchange the vowel A for a U. When I first moved there a lad I was working with told me his name was Curl, it was only when he said his dad was a communist & had named him after Karl Marx that I sussed he meant Carl. Not as prevalent these days but the other one is chimley instead of chimney & they say chips & fish for some strange reason? The whole place is just full of idiots. It probably doesn't help that I'm working at the biggest employer of idiots in the north west either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerberus Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 I doubt anyone will be surprised to learn the area is where the Luddites originated, and more recently are Brexit-y types. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milton75 Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 I was in Rochdale, Wigan, Blackburn, Bolton and Burnley a few weeks back. I can confirm that, like more or less everywhere in the area apart from Manchester city centre, they are appalling places. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milton75 Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Bury is not to bad & it's got a decent tram service to Manchester & they don't talk daft. Not been there, I was envious of the tram system though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONKMAN Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 New guy at work is from Lincoln, but tries to pronounce everything in a Scottish way. He's also the type of wank who reads the ladbible. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
