What country (or planet) are you from! NZ Roads are SH-T. We have some of the worst roads in the world (for a first world country).

Yeah mate . much the same as my experience too. Once the material starts coming in . it takes priority over everything. Most of the pricks that comment on road workers standing around wouldn't foot it on a job site anyway - their mouths would get them into trouble, lol!

You're making no sense what so ever.just trying to get my head around it. If anyone else reading this can make sense of this, please fill me in.

smac: Please answer what I have already quoted twice
Or lets break down again my first reply
Explain to me how making an observation affects labor allocation its a physical observation I have noted in donkey years of driving. So do tell me why what I do for a living affects my ability to make a judgement / observation and turn this into labor allocation.
Are you saying we need to be in a special type of job to make observations of driving past road w/ through road works!

lol that's just gold right there!

Well answer it, observations and passing a commentis somewhat different to labor allocation which I am not talking about. Do explain why!

Yes its a common sight.roadworkers breastfeeding their shovels!

Yes but what line of work are you in that will affect how you judge what you see with your own eyes. It may qualify you or not qualify to pass judgement according to some about road workers.
smac,
Jun 15, 10:35pm
*ahem* ok, I've calmed down. I'll try and explain:
You made an observation. Fine. I asked a question (what do you do that qualifies you etc), which you answered (its a observation i have made etc).
No problem with any of that.
What I DID ask was, what did you mean by saying "Firstly you can't use the function as its johnf_456 not johnf."That statement is not English in any form that makes sense or is relevant to this thread, so I was simply asking if you could please rephrase it, or clarify it's meaning. Please and thank you.

Nothing wrong with my eyes or do they tell lies! hmmmmm!

Sure, well to me its just polite to use a posters proper nickname or use the quote function. The quote function was referring to some who constantly mis type my nickname wrong and if they quoted it would not be a problem.
It is relevant to this thread, so as I said use the quote function if you can't type the nickname correctly which I know you can.

Riight, and nobody had quoted anyone in this thread yet. And you wonder why I was confused!! Forget that, rhetorical question.

Yeah see this is how it works: I'll call you bugs fecking bunny if I want to. Your call whether you answer or not. If you believe I am being disrespectful, or the name I use does not apply to you, then feel free to ignore me.
You say tomato, I say tomato. You say potato, I say pretentious git.

Its fine but to me its just polite to use the correct name unless they are specifically ok with it. Just like in person of making a nickname for someone then calling them that name you made up all the time, when they may not like it.
