He also likes Iron Maiden, Ozzy Osbourne, Fuel, and Snow Patrol.

[g force]

But apparently doesn't like people....

But apparently doesn't like people....

it's hardly a fucking crime.

 

[skyscraper101]

His facebook page also says one of his favourite films is 'Walk The Line'

 

[Sadken]

His facebook page has been taken down.

Honestly, you should see his ex-mrs...she is fucking amazing looking, I could never understand what the fuck was going on there.

 

[Giles]

What the fuck is your point?

My point is that I think that grown-ups who announce to the world that they are "Jedis" come across as a bit silly.

Giles..

What if they actually are though?

 

[grit]

Romford is Sith territory, everyone knows that.

Seriously though, the passenger being old/young/whatever and what happened beforehand are actually irrelevant.

A customer service employee abused a customer, his feet shouldnt have touched the ground on his way out of his job.

 

[Sadken]

His ex was saying that in "secret shopper" style TFL tests, Ian actually came out as the best customer service bod at Holborn. Pretty mental if true.

Anyway, I plan to try and get in there now he is at his lowest ebb and no use to her whatsoever. Teach you to shout abuse at Douglas Bader, you prick!

 

[Giles]

What if they actually are though?

I would have thought that a true Jedi could find better employment for someone of his skills - for example defeating the evil Sith lord Gordon Brown - than arguing with bolshie tube passengers. And losing.

Anyway, a real Jedi would have cut the blokes arm off with his light sabre rather than just call him a "git".

Proper mental, given this:

http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/stand...sengers-sack-the-rudest-worker-on-the-tube.do

Ian Morbin, 25, who earns at least £24,000 a year, was caught on camera last week shouting at an elderly man whose arm had become trapped in a Tube train door at Holborn station.

This caused more commuters to come forward with complaints...

BBC employee Andrea Lee said Mr Morbin screamed at her: "You're my f***ing problem." Ms Lee, 26, had complained last month about his treatment of another elderly passenger but said Mr Morbin turned on her angrily and "started screaming and chased me down the platform"...Security officer Liam Felton, 29, said he was told to "walk under a bus" by Mr Morbin earlier this month. Mr Felton, from Stoke Newington, added: "I went to tell him the barrier wasn't working and he just went off on one at me."

And if this bit is true:

Ian Morbin, 25, who earns at least £24,000 a year,

then he's hardly low paid either

 

[Sadken]

TFL staff are all pretty well paid, I think

Who knows what the old guy had done beforehand?

A mate of mine used to drive on the tube. He told me that City suits would sometimes stick briefcases into doors to stop them closing so they could get on. My mate said he used walk through the carriages to where they were and boot the briefcases back out again

The next stage of this saga is that people will actually start to go to Holborn in the hope that they will be ruded at. It's how people are.

I've done this. Fuck the timetable, I want to get on the train.

Also: I spent the first page of this thread thinking that it was the guy that presents Rude Tube that was in trouble.

Yeah, me too. Then I realised "oh fuck, I actually know this knobhead!". Was a great moment for me. I had it pointed out to me last night, I've actually met him loads of times - he used to come down to my club with his ex before his last ex (who is stunning, really quite gallingly). That ex was a bit crazy and he was always very very quiet. I think he was going for mean and moody, tbh, but he always came off as socially awkward instead.

Oh, and he is certain for the sack, I'd say.

bollocks would they, they'd have just gone 'this isn't the train you are looking for, accompany me up stairs' *Guiness jedi handwave*

 

[Sadken]

I drunkenly asked out his ex mrs last night.

 

[5t3IIa]

Has Ken mentioned that he knows this guy yet? I don't think I'm out of line for saying that btw.

Any luck?

 

[Sadken]

Ken knows!

 

[Sadken]

Any luck?

I await her reply with great interest. So, in other words: no.

The very fact that LU guy is her ex establishes her low standards. I wouldn't give up yet

 

[Sadken]

I would be most impressed with myself, I must say. I offered to take her to the ballet to show I'm not fucking around here.

Did you consider dressing as Capt. Jack Sparrow?

 

[Sadken]

Mate, I would dress as Jacqueline Sparrow if I thought it'd help.
