Completely agree with you.
Truth be told, I'm not far from the training salary myself and there's no way I'd consider my job on a par (or even close) to a doctor's. It's valued at that amount where I work (and yay for me that it is) but in terms of stress, working hours and impact on social...
Would it though? If you want to keep traffic levels low then surely buses (preumably more efficient ones...maybe) would be the way to go?
Pool cars can still only carry a small number of people and due to people wanting to leave as/when suits them (understandable) I can't see it ever being the...
A large proportion will because of his 'say it how it is' persona, as if blunt speaking is somehow an indication of ability or trustworthiness.

Personally believe that's his master plan. Cark it and let someone else end it, that way he's not got worry about tying up loose ends or buggering it up at all...
Can't see it happening with Boro likely to be hovering nearby, plus his wage demands (no, I don't know what our budget is, yes I'm making an assumption, sod off) are likely to be fairly impressive...
I'll give it a whirl, hopefully the funny moments will be more natural than they used to be;
'Oh no, we've accidentally set fire to another caravan, caused an international incident and said something outrageous about the French, what crazy chaps we are!'
If I'm asked to work for more hours than I'm contrcted for (I don't mean 20 minutes here and there either) I don't get paid any extra, but I accrue time off for it instead.
Jobs are different apparently.
