Well, my rant for the day.

RICKY STUART HAS DESERTED CRONULLA!

Like we're not doing badly enough without the coach quitting with 7 games left in the season.

Our only saving grace is that we can't get the wooden spoon (thank you Melbourne Storm for being corrupt :)).

What is happening to my beautiful club?

Im trying to sus it out for you but i think you will find he was mutually pushed/walked :eek: There was no respect towards him at all , i think you will be better off without him in all honesty :thumbup:..... He was always clashing with senior players like Luke Covell & Anthony Tupou

That would give you a serious dose of the " Sierra Hotel 1 Tango'S " , seriously though , i hope you get the ordeal storted.....

Are certain the guy even posted it in the 1st place :(

The guy that made it, has been in constant communication, and seems to be a fairly decent sort of bloke....i sent him a few messages today, trying to explain, the "BS and double talk" (Thanks Mulder for that quote)!

He is going to fab up another one for me, and re-send it in a day or two...cause he aint getting any joy at his end either!!! So i may even end up with 2 of the things....if so, i reckon i might "donate" the other one to the Forum as a prize for your you beaut new photo comp!!!!

Would feel bad, selling it, if i only paid for one!!!

Anyway, i still dont have anything to show for my trouble, so "all bets are off" till i have a CF Hugger in my hot little hands!

I reckon he sent it, but i also reckon, someone has nabbed it....highly likely that there is a Portugese postal worker, cruising around with a nice CF hugger on his FZ6 right about now!!!

:confused:

Sometimes stuff overseas seems to get caught up. I've had a few items that have just disappeared for huge periods of time (even with tracking) and then reappeared weeks later.

Yeah, i have had similar experiences...but this one is a pain, as it seems no-one wants to help, at either end....

Oh well, at least i know how the whole Aussie customs/Aussie Post relationship is....not good!

:(
 
You should ring them up alternately, and tell them that the other is saying nasty things about them...lol...really razz 'em up. If they're just going flock you around, you might as well wind 'em up a bit...lol.:Flip:

As for the Fender. Remember the Headlight? Where the heck did that get to...lol..then just turned up. I'm tipping you'll end up with 2.:thumbup:

You'll get the post office and find the staff using it as a muffin holder or something.
I mean sometimes the post system is really good, but sometimes its really really really bad.
What annoys me is that most of the postage related stuff is so simple yet in peak times the post office has the slowest customer service in the world.

That or you'll be watching that customs TV show and they'll be showing the latest horde of discovered weapons, machetes, swords, knives, num-chuks, etc and then your CF hugger will be down the end with a little string and note saying "Extremely dangerous weapon".
Then the custom agents will walk over to it and say how the new age criminals are now making carbon fibre weapons to get through security!! :thumbup:

LMFAO! You know, scarily enough, your probably not that far away from the reality!!!! :eek:
 
And the video....

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4SeA5SMrk6A]YouTube - FZ1 Nearly killed by lycra[/ame]


Dumb@$$ Lycra ****heads.

7km/h in an 80km/h zone through blind turns. OK, the guy in the car needs dragging out and beating too, but the root cause?
 
I'm going to be totally honest, but bicyclists should not be able to use public roads, or at least none that move faster than 50km/h.
They pay nothing to use the roads, they rarely if ever use bicycle lanes provided, and filter to the front of traffic making getting through lights even harder and meaning people have to pass them multiple times since they are too slow to stay ahead of traffic.
They run red lights, they ride several abreast and often take up more than one lane, they don't go through roundabouts properly (I've had some try and stay far left which means idiots try and pass IN a roundabout.
They should have to pay for rego, and they should lose points off their licence for running lights and stupid stuff.

I agree....they are a menace on the roads....and go nuts if you go near them, when they are wobbling all over the road in front of you, around blind corners, at 15-2okm's/h at the most....

they need more regulation for sure!

:thumbup:
 
I don't rant very often, but today was "one of those days".

What is it with grown adults that can't get over their ego's and ignore a fellow worker that they don't get along with?? Gist of it is.. 2 guys, both of the same personality, get on each others nerves. Guy 1 (I'll call him Scott) slides a plastic tub across the floor at guy 2 I'll call him Gary), which hits him in the back of the legs. Gary then picks up plastic tub and hurls it at Scott. Because the tub hits a rack, Gary then grabs a steel engine mount and throws that at Gary.. same as the tub (luckily), it hits the rack and falls to the floor.

I (being the Leading Hand) have to step in and calm the situation. Company policy states I can't discipline my workers, I have to inform the Area Leader. He has a chat to them, and now I'm a "dobber". I wonder what they would have called me if I did nothing and 2Kg's of steel ended up in the guys head and I did nothing to stop it???

I think I need a change of scenery at work, these sooks are starting to get to me.

Dunno if it a wise choice, but I've applied for an Area Leader position.... Probably have to deal with that crap over a entire Plant rather than just my line??? It pays double what I get now, and I can get a new car every 6 months for $50 a fortnight.

Ok, Rant over /// Resume regular scheduled ranting
