If you've been tacitly accused of this, can you provide me with a non-confrontational retort to the legions of ill-informed morons who don't see how much offence can be caused by saying that what I actually do for a living doesn't justify my salary? Experience reminds me that it's nearly always those who have a history of working for the public sector that level this kind of underhand accusation.


I work for a high street bank and in doing so I put in an excess of 60 hours a week.I put in the effort and overcame all the trepidation that comes with getting a degree and got myself a job immediately after leaving university. I may work for a bank where the majority shareholders are the taxpayer; but that doesn't give someone the right, regardless of how much tax they pay, the right to scold me for earning a six figure income. To have some lefty entitlement case - who nearly always earns significantly less than those in my position - cast unfounded doubt over whether what I do for a living justifies my wage is galling to say the least. I don't "earn too much". My value my is directly proportional to what my employers pay me. So suck it, losers. Not you charming folk of ED. Just the ignorant serfs who I look down upon. Bwahahahaha

Yeah, I'm such a 'loser' that I own my own house and can afford to send my kids to a private school. Unlike some around here who struggle to pay the mortgage and hinder their kids from childhood by shoving them off to the local comp where they'll rub shoulder with all the free dinner cases whose parents don't take any interest in their education or how disruptive they are. Loser? Dream on.


I bet you all wish you shopped at Waitrose when you're fretting over the receipt from Iceland.

You should've been there when I drove past Harris Girls' school the other day. One young lady's PE kit looked like it's been in the family for generations. I pity the poor fool who's repaid with tales of drug dealing and gang violence after sending their daughter there.

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
