Ref. Alan Medic


Well that is Your Thread.. Your.. post...


Its a sensitive issue..


Do you think it would be appropriate to start adding Numbers to Your.. thread.


My reference to 'never have anything Positive, Constructive , Interesting, Relative to say in any thread'

meant existing threads. Other peoples Threads. Ones that don't interest you.

The ones you show contempt for. The ones you and your 'mates' your 'gang' wish to mock.


Do you get it now...


DF

DF, no thread is MY thread, nor yours for that matter. Do you not realise that the number of posts that reach a multiple of 100 could happen on ANY thread be it interesting or not to me and my 'gang'.


You really are writing a load of horse poo. Now sod off. I'm trying to start a clique while working out how to post on a thread that doesn't exist...


PS It's not my gang by the way.

I'd say triple.BTW it currently stands at -90 to lift off.


Please PM me regarding the next secret meeting of the numbers club. Everyone in disguise as usual I suppose?

Amazing how a niche, almost irrelevant "game" has become a hot point


My take. When you see a reference to 100, 1000, 3200 or whatever just smile indulgently or go green with jealousy and move on


But Mike P grand naga is surely correct when he says his carefully curated curry club thread has become infected with niche debate, In-jokes and back biting. One can see how it organically develops but equally it don't belong in some places.


In a lounge thread where people are debating.... Merits of cheese on toast? Football matches? A judicious number interjection is amusing


In the curry thread when potential newbies are mustering resources to tag along, an outbreak of selective banter is off putting at best.

SJ, I'd like to point out that the infection you refer to would never have turned into a debate if it wasn't for the great chief himself. Secondly, who are these newbies that are going to be scared off by a number? Why would they be? There may be many reasons as to why someone might or might not attend a curry night but I hardly think they are going to be put off an a number which might have been totally ignored.


The selective banter you refer to is because the chief chose to express his upset that his club thread was used by a pair of muppets (not his words) who play a silly game. The only thread which I think deserves some reverence is the Chapel of Rest. None other.

If you don't like it, I'm sorry. The reactions and insults on here have been over the top and are more of a reflection of the people who expressed them than someone who is silly enough to play a numbers game and get some sort of satisfaction out of it.

Amazing or amusing? Fook me some people* need to get a sense of perspective, it's a poxy game on a poxy local internet forum at the end of the day, anyone else finding this a mixture of hilarious and sad??? We've got ISIS, Ebola and all sorts of crap going on in the real and this merits this?? Really. Pathetic really.


*not you SJ

I haven't but I'd love to know its relevence to a local forum where some muppets (as definfed by someone else) write numbers for fun(debateable). Is there a connection?

Oh yeah? Wanna take it outside?

SJ, he started it a while back. Not just on this occasion. So get off the fence please or read the holy thread. Just because potential new curry club 'members' may be considering it, does not mean they are new to the forum.


Which bit is unnecessary? The number posting or the response? You can't agree with everyone.

    • It’s not great, but this only happens when a business is in trouble and is facing bankruptcy. The landlords are free to say no. The restructuring will often then have to be approved by a High Court judge, so it’s not a total gun-to-the head. It does upset landlords quite a bit though, because if the business does go under, they’ll likely not see any pay out. So they often feel under pressure to comply. 
    • "Sitting around doing job related things". Do you mean sitting and doing their jobs? "have you had your COVID jabs?" Perhaps instead of spending your time on here insulting other posters, in this case me, you would be more effectively employed contacting the practice management with a detailed description of exactly what you say you saw and when. And then see what they say. You have made a lot of assumptions with presumably absolutely no idea what those people's jobs are or when their break times are. I am not defending the practice, which seems to have some problems  I just don't like seeing people who aren't here to defend themselves being publicly attacked by someone who apparently doesn't actually know what those people were doing and why.
    • Relatively recently, they employed a couple of young people on front desk work they were excellent. I don’t know if they’re still there. And yes, they may be doing something on their computers that’s important but when you see  people queuing and no one appearing for many minutes the system seems inefficient.  Some simple changes could make a big difference.  But those changes would have to come from management rather than individual workers choosing to jump up and help. 
    • I'm happy not seeing a GP face to face.  I had WhatsApp video appointments a couple of years ago,which ended up with me being rightly sent to Tommies A and E.  I see nurses from time to time at TJ, I always have a good laugh with both them and the blood test people.  I see the practice nurse at FH from time to time and it feels like visiting an old friend. I'm not sure whether social media has made us a more negative nation, or it just feels this way due to some of you who post on this forum.  The majority of posts in ED matters and on the transport thread are complaints  How would you define lazy and useless?  There is a spectrum of productivity, and of customer service.  Some excel at one or both, but I'm not sure at what point workers drop below an acceptable level.  When I am unhappy I will complain to an organisation. Some respond better than others.  One of my first posts over a decade was to complain about a local shop.  It's a funny anecdote which is essentially a "Ok you don't want my money so I'll go and spend many 100s of pounds at a different company" but I regret not dealing directly with the shop rather than getting pointless revenge many years later.  Still won't use the shop though.
