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.

    • Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm    
    • If you mean the one outside the church going towards Peckham, it still had the closed sign on it this morning, but as there are no road works there, I'm sure some of the drivers will stop there on request.  The stop outside the chippy coming from Peckham is closed as there are road works in front of it.  The 4 way traffic lights are in operation.., causing a lot of congestion.
    • We found a recommendation for Geek Electrics on a here after we wanted to have a electrical inspection of a property we are buying. From the very beginning through to the end Bob was responsive, helpful and demonstrated his knowledge. He has been an absolute pleasure to deal with. We will defiantly be using Bob again and would thoroughly recommend him! His details are... www.geekelectrics.co.uk 07453 407 226 [email protected]
    • I want to try that and also the granary loaf. Used to get a good granary loaf from the bakery that was in Herne Hill a long time ago.  Think they are somewhere In the vicinity of Coulsdon now. They used to make the hamburger buns for the Meatwagon/Meatliquor people.
