I stand in a corridor and open the door for rich folk so they can walk through Really? And that’s all you do? No, no, I close the door afterwards and wait for the next rich person to come along. And you don’t aspire to do anything more than that with your life? Of course I do. My boss says that if I stick at it, in another 5 years or so, I can apply for the post of Light Switch Turner Off and Onner. That’s when I’ll know I’ve made it. Other than Doorpeople, most of those opening doors are not doing it as their full-time job, it's something they do as a very tiny part of their duties. You never opened a door for anyone? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Tennis Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 1 hour ago, jamamafegan said: Attempts to shove royalty down our throats will only help to continue dividing us from the Union so I’m all for it. Yes, I suspect there might be truth in that. Obviously, you do get royalist types in Scotland, but they're surely far fewer in number than in England. Even people who aren't hostile to the monarchy must see this as OTT and actually a pain in the arse. You'd imagine it would drive most sensible people further away from unionist sentiment, rather than towards it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a mystery to me but there’s clearly a demographic out there who this means something to and it’s not my place to stop it. However, the complete black out of any other news/programming makes it state mandated mourning and I find it very weird. Yes, very much this. The fact that this news leaves me unmoved doesn't mean it must be that way for everyone. However, the scale of this coverage is just incredible. In my car this morning, I couldn't find a Radio station that wasn't devoted to his death. It's madness. If it genuinely does reflect wider feeling, then I don't live in the country I thought I did. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
