And me the same. We're only fuelling him to post more sh*te. Think he gets off on it though...............

You win Vapid.

I can only echo what RLE has posted here

How can your employer not be bothered by staff productivity levels, after all it's the staff which form the main elements of running a company, in whatever that company may do

It amazes me, that you (Vapid) working for an oil company, gain your wealth from high taxes on their product & secondly from the lack of work they are getting from you

If you were in fact head hunted, i think the volume (or lack of) would clearly show, and they would be aware that you are in fact, a time waster, thus a prime candidate for the dole

I can only guess that one of your "projects" is to study or participate in the amount of mindless bollocks which appear on the internet

Vapid

This post and a few others just go to show what a low level you people operate on and how little you know about the workings of the corporate machine.
I know people who work for this company who are in an almost constant state of drunkeness and earn high 6 figure salaries. Their productivity level is almost nothing. I also know people who got their wives/mistresses highly paid jobs despite them being too stupid to even bang two rocks together.
As it happens I'm one of the most productive members of the whole department, thus why I'm left alone to do whatever I want as long as I produce results.
It's good to be the king.

Oh dear!

There's no poite way to put this

Not entirely stupid. They have clearly found two rocks that they bang together (and must be quite good at it)

Is this what you meant when you said you got "head hunted" Vapid? I'm not passing judgement. You have to use the skills that are available to you.

The oil from the company must come in useful

Eh be careful.......the mrs might be watching!!!

One point here

I have worked in all area’s of company analysis for the past 8 years

Resourcing, Budgets, Performance, Statistics etc.

It is a common fact that all companies rely on all the above data in its daily running,

So, I put my point forward, if you were head hunted for a specific skill or quality, they would be monitoring this, or should be

Watch out Vapid – Your *** could be on the chopping block

Has anybody noticed that every troll seems to be a company CEO?? Strange.

RMA26

Yeah, funny that

i think i have just met the dullest geek on the net

Crosstalk

Now you're just talking c**p. I'm not a grandad, but neither do I go through town exceeding whatever speed limit's in place. I do however get plenty of arseholes behind me wanting to go faster. Which is just tough unless there's room to overtake me.

Hop you get stuck behind me someday.

I bet that you're the sort that sits on the motorway in the middle lane, doing 50mph??
Now that IS dangerous.

His employer isn't bothered what he does when there's nobody at his checkout to pay for the petrol at his oil companys forecourt

Answering the original post, everyone at some point during their day speeds.

It can be by 1 mph or vastly more. The fact that the original poster bothered to check his speed to me, shows he was trying to be responsibile.

The various posts about Plod hidining in Bushes etc etc, then the replies that, you shouldn't speed etc etc have been done to death.

ONE simple question, would we all feel so hard done to if............ we could see Plod putting as much visible effort into>>> Drug Dealers>>Burglars>>Muggers>>>Dangerous Drivers>>>Illegal Asylum Seekers>>>Shoplifters>>>Peodifiles>>>ETC ETC??

Honest answers please???


Thanks

The motorist is a criminal on wheels, didn't you know that?

Its only a matter of time before a motorist falls foul of the traffic plods and gets points on their licence. I know grannys who have more points than i do. They have Micras and i have a LCR 225.

wakko

The point is that plod is getting very sneaky in order to put up their "hit" rate and it pi$$es everyone off.

Vapid

The point of this thread is that the person who posted it doesn't actually know how to drive. Sadly just like many other road users.

I don't see how anyone can bitch about the way the law is enforced until they are at least competent behind the wheel, that includes knowing what you should be doing before you take the decision that you know better.

Vapid, breaking the speed limit outside built up areas can be just as irresponsible as anywhere else. Speaking from my experiences of being on the scene of 2 fatal accidents right outside my home which is to the side of a 60 limit road, the results don't look any better for the fact that a higher limit applies.

In my view, there is a time and a place which is determined by a large dollop of common sense. The road conditions, location and risk to third parties and yourself (and indirectly dependants if you end up dead) help to make some excess speed less irresponsible - if that makes sense??

You criticising the original poster for lack of knowledge of the highway code and traffic regulations when you seem more than happy to flout them outside a built up area is f*cking hilarious.....

I'm not saying that I am never guilty of slight bending of the rules but at least I don't go round taking the p*ss of others.

Think you used the right word there, its not necessarily speed that kills its the lack of common sense and speed, in fact just a lack of common sense is pretty dangerous and sadly can be seen on the roads every day.

Vapid

I think the phrase you are looking for is 'speed appropriate to the conditions'. Indeed travelling within the posted limits may well be too fast sometimes.

My criticism of the original poster is that he is sadly unaware of the rules of the road, despite having a driving licence. Surely that cannot be correct?

Can you also point out where I said I'm happy to flout rules outside a built up area?

Rodintee

I think you will see how I get the impression you are making a general statement that exceeding the limit "on the open road" is acceptable !!

Vapid

It's quite clear that what I was saying is that I have more sympathy for the position of someone caught speeding on 'the open road' than in built up areas. For obvious reasons. I certainly wasn't implying that it's something I do myself. Although by the same token I haven't denied it either.

Rodintee

No worries Vapid, not specifically targeting you or implying anything seriously.....

Too many threads which seem to promote excess speed outside of towns...

Too many parts of cars still littering the verge over the road...

In many ways I think the best thing anyone can do to learn good driving skills which will give great improvments to observation and understanding of risks is spend some time on a bike, theres nothing like being so vulnerable to keep you on your toes.
