Now, that was not called for, I thought it was rahter funny. You should
learn not to use offensive language as there are minors that read this
group.
Please refrain from insulting people in this news group. That statement did
not need a smily face on it either to know he was only having fun with you
(you know what I am talking about).

But what about all the stuff ups caused by a guard? all the shit they gave
driver? Also what about the drivers been in the wrong? EX. derailment at
hard. You telling me that this wouldn't have happened if there was a guard?
If the railways abolish a position, they give the workers an option to
transfer.

Well, each sector operates to a different capacity. over in frementle, they
might be able to handle as many containers per hour as in Brisbane. If they
did, the workers should be sacked for not doing an efficeiant job.
